Vincent Canby, New York Times
Medium Cool is an awkward and even pretentious movie, but, like the report of the President's National Advisory Commission on Civil Disorders, it has an importance that has nothing to do with literature.

Dennis Schwartz, Ozus' World Movie Reviews
An interesting time capsule essay film that takes us back to the infamous 1968 Democratic National Convention in Chicago and its police riot.
