Trippy rock opera with drug references and sexual imagery.

Fans of the Who beware. Ken Russell applies his rococo outpourings to Pete Townshend's rock opera and botches not only the visuals but the fine score.

Ken Russell's filmization of Tommy is spectacular in nearly every way.

The core essence of Tommy lies in the quivering carriage of Ann-Margret and her heroic personification of Russell's funhouse directorial approach.

This is both the movie in which [Russell] is most faithful to the ideas and tone of his material, and one of his very worst films.

Most definitely a musical gem with the Who and everyone in the cast at their best.

Overlong, over-indulgent, overdone.

It's all fairly excessive and far from subtle, but in this case good taste would have been wildly inappropriate and a fearful drag.

An anything-goes phantasmagoria that pushes at the borders of good taste and good sense.

This 1975 film's inventiveness begins to flag about halfway through, but by then it's a relief. If only Wagner could have lived to see this.

The effect is exhilarating and exhausting.
