    The Monkees TV show was a ruse; the genius of the REAL band/actors, and their filmmaking friends is shown here is this addictive psychedelic masterpiece, which moves non-stop, with ideas, songs, hilarity and soical commentary.

    What happens when you take a group of "musicians" with a television show aimed squarely at teens, and then go and make a Restricted film that cannot be seen by anyone under 18? You get "Head". It sounds a lot more pleasant than it is.

    Awesome movie, man. Just like The Beatles' A Hard Day's Night it has no point. The Monkees have a free for all and I love it. The best part is when Davy Jones dances and it keeps switching to him in a balck suit in a white room to a white suit in a black room. It is a really cool movie.

    The Monkee's tv show was axed while this was in production. needless to say their career wouldn't resurface for another 18 years.

    I haven't seen it but I know it's awesome because it has MICKY DOLENZ (and yes, the rest of the Monkees too I suppose) and I LOVE micky dolenz!!! :D Also, I LOVE Daddy's Song (Davy Jone's showpiece)

    I never got to see all of this -- what I did see appealed to my love for bent reality. So I want to see it all.

    This is probably a little known Monkees movie. It was directed by Jack Nicholson. Kind of hard to follow...but I think that's the point!

    Not easy to understand, but this is a surrealistic jewel! We're talking about a joke on the Hollywood machine, the media, even on The Monkees themselves. The film is a pandemonium of intertwined stories without ending: these are the fantasies of Hollywood and the Monkees Fans for The Monkees. Unfortunately, our four main characters are imprisoned in them!

    Bizarre, disorienting, maybe even a little antisocial-- this ain't no Hard Day's Night. The Monkees deliver a sharp psychedelic slap in the face to anyone expecting hippie sweetness and light.

    Rose was a real Monkees fan at one time. Even with love of guys as a motivation, this was unwatchable.

    I heard that because they were soo into the drugs during the filiming of this that there is no real story line, just a big old jumble.

    so very very confusing the first time ya see it but man, once you sit and watch it oh... a lot, it's all good. maybe... i had to really ponder over it. i'm sure if i did drugs, it probably would have helped.

    A cult classic! I have seen it so many times, & like lots of people, I have no idea what it's about!!! I'm sure no one does! But it is worth having a look at just for the Monkees musical sequences, & for fim students.

    Ever thought to yourself " Hey it woulda been cool if during the 60s the monkees hung out with Jack Nicholson did drugs and made a weird psychedelic movie" Well they did and it is pretty cool.

    i love this movie. i watched it night before last. that was probably the 10000th time but... it's the best. i'm probably the youngest person to love it though. it makes life hard when you like stuff your parents didn't even like.
