Hippy "peace movement" claptrap, purporting to "say something" about Vietnam, while clouding itself in pitifully childish "science fiction" ideas which would have H.G. Wells spinning in his grave. There are even "cute" robots, in a pathetic effort to show that even androids can be more "human" than warmongering governments. Add to that domes full of spinach and a distinct love of "trees", and we have the most dangerously subversive film since the sickening WOODSTOCK. Even Joan Baez is on board, smoking "weed", and pretending to solve the world's problems by wearing flowers in her hair, flowery dresses - or nothing at all. Intelligent audiences should run a mile. Leave this one for the drop-outs. With any luck they'll smoke themselves to death, thus leaving more room on the planet for people who can actually work for a living and contribute to the system.

So Leslie ..... you had a hard day of redemptive toil as a film reviewer and critic, eh? We need more men like you.
The world may not need Joan Baez' songs, or the music industry revenue they bring in, but by God, we have need of such men as you, to tell us what to watch. 'Keeps us on the straight and narrow.
