Amazon.com essential video:
The Age of Aquarius is brought to life by the filmmaker who made Amadeus a household word. Milos Forman directed this version of James Rado, Gerome Ragni, and Galt MacDermot's landmark musical in 1979 between his Oscar-winning films One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest and Amadeus. With mixed reviews (Gene Siskel named it that year's best film) and lukewarm box-office grosses, the film all but disappeared from the collective consciousness. Yet the film beautifully delivers on its promise to bring the '60s back to life. Hair re-creates a colorful world of counterculture finding an anvil to pound on: the Vietnam War. Forman and his design team allow the film to wash over you, starting at the free-flowing opening in which masses of hippies, police, and even their horses eagerly groove to the familiar beat of "Aquarius." In the best work of his career, Treat Williams makes his leading- man debut as Berger, the leader of the Central Park troop who takes draftee Claude (John Savage) under his wing on his trip through New York City and the apex of what the '60s was. The new recording of the music is quite fine, with Chicago band member Don Dacus's rendition of the title song a highlight. As Berger's pièce de résistance number says, "I've Got Life"; so does the film, right down to its poignant declaration to "let the sunshine in." --Doug Thomas

A Classic! Cool movie! The cast was spectacular! The music, the dancing, the singing, the acting - all was superb. The singing voices of each actor rocks! Highly recommended!

Nicely done--the transition from stage to screen. The characters draw you in and the music has a sense of humor. Poignant war statement made without being preachy. If you like musicals, this is one you shouldn't miss. But don't take it too seriously!

Rating: - Feel it
Excellent and inspiring movie. I can't believe how many people are not yet familiar with either the stage musical or the movie. This will definitely evoke the late sixties for anyone over 40, and give light into what the era was about for younger folk. Please do be aware that, although my 6 year old daughter is thrilled to watch the movie over and over, there are quite a few parts that are not appropriate for the under 17 crowd.

Rating: - Super Movie
Really good older movie. I watched thsi when I was in my 20s. Loved it so much, asked my mom to watch it with me ... and she loved it. She is in her 70s now and still remembers the movie. It shows a lot of the emotions that were going on in the 60s with the Vietnam War. Also how teenager were in the era with sex, drugs and music.
