Critic Reviews
-
Howard Thompson, New York Times
Most of it is strained and unfunny, with some generous nudity for nudity's sake and a hip sprinkling of four-letter words.
-
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
What holds the film together is not its plot (there isn't one) but its attitude, its general instinct for what is funny in our society.
-
Dave Kehr, Chicago Reader
It's all served up with good humor, self-indulgence, a touch of wit, and once in a while a fine satirical relish.
-
Emanuel Levy, EmanuelLevy.Com
This modest film by the young Brian De Palma, starring the young Robert De Niro, is one of the first features that dealt with Vietnam.
-
, TV Guide's Movie Guide
Brian De Palma's breezy, Godardian first feature distills the heady atmosphere of Greenwich Village in an era of countercultural experimentation and anti-war protest.
