Summary: Very very bad and cheasy..!!!!
Review: As this story starts out, you get the excited feeling that you are about to witness an in-depth and expansive insight into Timothy Leary... suddenly a tall lanky kid (the son of an unknown Merry Prankster) leads you on a goofball idiotic history of the Merry Prankster 60's.. He talks to you like you are 7 years old and continually tries to sensationalize word, "LSD", like it is a mind shattering word that will just blow you over with the way he says it. His sensationalist attempt fails and just makes him look really naive and stupid.. You tire of the performance 5 minutes into the show. It seems obvious that the age group this is intended for must be the teeny bopper group. Timothy Leary is hardly in this movie, except for a few occasional places, it's instead devoted to Ken Kessey and his merry pranksters and everything they did in the 60's. They eventually meet up together near the end of Learys life and Kessey exploits the situtaion to steal the show with his "warrior philosophy" in which leary describes later as "I just played along" You get the feeling that most everyone who attended didnt really know who leary was, except that he was connected with l.s.d. in some way. Most had never read any of his work.. He must have secretly been very lonley towards the end.

Timothy Leary was a big brain, no doubt, just explore Exo-Psychology (a work that modern day psychology has never really been able to decrypt) He made some genuine and important contributions to psychology, he was a real pioneer and a Galileo of his time.. it's sad that he should be used in such a lame and cheap attempt to make some bucks or to fulfill the ego's of the those that missed the 60's and want to take advantage of a spotlight shining on a greater person.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: TIMOTHY LEARY EXPLOITED!!!!!!
Review: BEWARE! This video isn't really about Tim at all. It is more about the Merry Pranksters than anything else. I thought I would find a good documentary about one of the most brilliant men of the century, the man who wrote Exo-Psychology, the man who served prison time with a smile on his face. This film merely exploits Tim's memory.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Far out!
Review: This film is a definite trip. I highly recommend it to anyone who appreciates the Psychedelic experience... the film made me realize the 60s are still alive, or as Ken Kesey says: "ain't over till the fat lady gets high!"

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Wonderful Tribute
Review: This film is art. it is made from the heart and shares the integrity of The Pranksters relationship to Tim Leary. the reviewers that dissed it don't understand the place it comes from. the "unknown prankster" mentioned by one of the negative reviewers is KEN BABBS, Ken Kesey's partner. The creator of the film is OB Babbs who grew up within the Pranksters. They resurrect the bus and take a magic trip to pick up Timothy Leary and together go to Camp Winnarainbow, Wavy Gravy's place. Tim is in it alot & is having a great time. it's a heartwarming tribute and a blessing for the viewers to see Tim just before he passed away. RIP Tim & Ken. Enjoy this terrific film!

Summary: Bad trip
Review: This thing was horrible it barely had anything to do with Timothy Leary, I was realy let down and if you are a true Leary fan dont check it out, its not worth the time, but if your some wannabe acid head then this movie is for you.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: INCREDIBLE VIDEO
Review: Wonderful video, on exactly what the title says "Tim Leary's Last Trip". That first reviewer must not be able to read a title... as Ken Kesey says "The dumb people will always out number the smart people", so that explains his poor review, he's just illiterate.
The Kesey stuff is a bonus from what the film is about, "Tim Leary's Last Trip", esp with the 'recent' mid-1990s meeting of Leary and Kesey.
A great video..... plus Leary himself explains an error in Tom Wolfe's "Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test", which should delight all.
