  1. 5 Stars  Rated 5 out of 5!
    The World’’s Greatest Psychedelic Driver’’s Ed Film

    Rather than suffer her 19th Nervous Breakdown disgruntled housewife Marianne Faithfull (pre-Tom Waits soundalike period) hits the European road gleefully bouncing her robust Brit bottom on her motorbike soon to be coupled with intense Eurohunk Alain Delon.
    Our leather-clad goddess wistfully reflects and reminisces about her last year on earth with eye-zapping psychedelic effects. This film would actually play very well in a double-feature with the simirlarly wild film "Performance".
    Note to Marianne: while grinding down the Autobahn on a motorbike at 95 miles an hour it’’s okay to flap your thighs and bounce your butt but by all means KEEP YOUR EYES OPEN!
  2. 3 Stars  Rated 3 out of 5
    Rated X? You’’ve got to be kidding...

    This film has some good Harley riding by the girl in question, interesting scenery & cinematography and a nice, arty premise, but the psychedelics are annoying and by no means buy the DVD for the nudity. I can’’t believe this had to be "extensively cut" to get an R-rating. Seems to me that it would need a few seconds of trims at MOST and in fact there’’s nothing I saw here that I haven’’t seen in other R-rated movies. There isn’’t a lot of nudity in it and the vast majority is obscured by the psychedelic effects. The resulting footage is mostly no more explicit than a James Bond title sequence. The PG-rated Logan’’s Run shows off Jenny Agutter just about as much (without being so annoying). I can’’t help but wonder if this DVD doesn’’t really contain the cut version, although it doesn’’t look cut up... I’’ve seen plenty of R-rated "exploitation flicks" that were way more revealing.
  3. 1 Star  Rated 1 out of 5
    5 Stars????

    A few interesting scenes, but the campy psychedelic effects overwhelm this movie.
