Description of Flashback:
Inspired casting puts sparks in this comedy of counterculture clash between an aging 1960s radical and a buttoned-down FBI agent. Dennis Hopper plays an Abbie Hoffman-esque sixties activist and prankster who lands in the custody of a conservative young agent (a suitably uptight Kiefer Sutherland) and proceeds to literally unravel the agent's carefully constructed front through a series of slippery mind games. Hopper has a blast as the unreformed sixties relic, and Carol Kane is delightful as a hippie holdout who puts both men back in touch with their identities. There are few surprises, plenty of heart, and even a little sentiment in this story of rebellion and the legacy of the counterculture. The soundtrack is gilded with well-chosen 1960s anthems. --Sean Axmaker

Flashback 
2009-09-14 - Great movie. Fantastic buy and quick delivery. Unfortunately I have not seen it on TV or on video for such a long time. Really recommend this unusual funny picture with such unusual people is such rolls. What a laugh, hope you enjoy as much as I did.
Fantastic!!
2009-03-03 - I have always loved this movie. It made me love Dennis Hopper as an actor. Kiefer Sutherland, my favorite actor, plays an uptight FBI agent that has to transport an old hippy to another jail. He does a great job at making you fall in love with even the baddest of his characters. I was very excited to add this movie to my collection and I think you will too.
"Flashback" dvd purchase

This movie is classic comedy.

A real flashback
2008-10-17 - It's a real flashback for me to the time when I was a teeager and saw this movie for the first time on one of local cable TV channels. I didn't remember the name of the movie, nor actors' names, but I remembered the plot. A funny comedy with some elements of actions and even drama. The style I like. It's a good, very kind movie, which teaches people to be tolerant, open-hearted and not to forget their roots. I thank Amazon for giving me a chance to experience wonderful moments again.
