Hey, hey, it's the Monkees . . . being catapulted through one of American cinema's most surreal sixties odysseys. Micky Dolenz, Davy Jones, Michael Nesmith, and Peter Tork become trapped in a kaleidoscopic satire that's movie homage, media send-up, concert movie, and antiwar cry all at once. Head dodged commercial success on its initial release but has since been reclaimed as one of the great cult objects of the era.
