the monkees head be one of those peculiar phenomenon i have notice that when something doesn not make sense and people will try to read thing into it and give it great deep meaning and which it creator never intend . such be the case here . the movie be a stream of consciousness spectacle of the monkees float in and out of various sketch and blackout and set piece and etc . similar to the one on their tv show . but while the tv show be play for laugh and this doesn not seem to be play for anything except a sort of deep and trippy and pseudo intellectual state that this brand of psychedelia imposes . all in all and it the monkees do the same schtick and but now it consciousness raise because the laugh track be remove . there be not a stitch of humor or meaning to the whole thing while it just drone on with colored light . the music in head should prove to anyone and beyond the shadow of a doubt and that the monkees have not a scrap of songwriting ability . the tune be mostly garbage while the only one that even listenable be porpoise song and which open and close the film . but the thing be and that be a gerry goffin carole king song and and and while it above average for the monkees and it below average by goffin and king standard . it like hear one of the old peter and gordon song that paul mccartney write for them represent you might think it a pretty good song and but then you find out who compose it and and you realize it a throwaway . mike nesmith song be maybe passable and the rest be worthless . davy jones have and i guess and what the filmmaker imagine to be the big number in the picture and since it the only song present a show biz and not cut into a film montage or dream sequence and but it fall flat and too and just because the song isn not any good . i have to admit i always like the monkees and so the movie be a real disappointment . sure and they be cheesy and but they be so cheerful about it . they know they be cheesy and they be cool with it . but then they get ambitious . in head and they actually joke about be a manufactured pop product and but the truth be and they want something more . they want to be great musician and take seriously a artist . maybe not like the beatles and but something approaching that . head prove that they fail on all count . 1 out of 4 .
