Psych-Out / The Trip Reviews:
Living history 
2009-09-24 - I enjoyed both of these movies very much! It was a chance to get a glimpse into the hippie sub culture and also showed me valuable insights into the history of the 1960's. These movies were NOT 'pro-drug' and showed how there was so much more to the counter culture movement then just hedonistic drug use. It actually was about so much more. This was the first time I ever got to look into that culture, and it taught me a lot about my country, my history and the people who made the way for modern rock, metal and punk. Very cool movies. I highly recomend them to everyone.
Reality is Dangerous 
2009-09-07 - An interesting film trip through 1960's Haight, but for the most part this is visual porn. Plot of Psych Out is disjointed and is all over the place. Film makers try to incorporate everything from the scene-the bands, the posters, the drugs, the sex, the attitudes and the viewer just ends up a little bewildered.
I like San Francisco, so this film was appealing to me. People who are attracted to the city, the era, or the actors are going to find this film appealing. Others may find it without merit. I suggest the film I Love You, Alice B. Toklas! if you want a glimpse of the era AND a bit of a plot.
Performances by Nicholson and Stockwell were good. Stockwell lays down tracks for later performances in David Lynch films like Twin Peaks - The Definitive Gold Box Edition (The Complete Series)
This is the second early Jack Nicholson film I've seen with a distinct anti-drug message. Who was financing his early films? Wait...maybe this film did influence me a bit more than I thought. I'm feeling paranoid...
Groovy baby...
2009-07-13 - Super awesome movie, the best by far movie about acid trips ever. The trip is amazing. This is a movie for every head out there. Tune in turn on and drop out...
great service
2008-12-12 - I saw part of the trip on tv at like 3am one day and just had to buy it afterwards. Amazon shipped it quickly and with a reasonable price!
Big Disappointment 
2007-02-08 - I was very disappointed with this DVD. The sound reproduction was abysmal. The video wasn't very good either; although, I can understand why transfer of a film after 40 years might result in less than optimal video. What I can't understand is why so much of the original footage was deleted from these DVDs.
CONCLUSION: A Big Disappointment.
RECOMMENDATION: Don't bother.
