It could have been a lot better

Rating: 6/10 (22 November 2009)

I could hardly wait for this movie to come out. The whole concept could have really worked. But the historical inaccuracies. There was tunage from the future (Jimi Hendrix came out a year later -The Stone's Jumping Jack Flash was a year after that), current surfer/skater dialog ("dude!"), and the new millennium hip lesbian scene did me in. When I watch a period piece, I would like to be swept away, even in as in a comedy as this one.
And yes, the soundtrack rocked. The cast was terrific. There were lots of funny scenes. But this is not the 60s that I knew and studied.
I would wait for the DVD to rent.
