Summer of '67

This is a morose film with weird colours like some kind of dated faded 16mm cine camera. It did not capture the feeling of the times which despite the war was very vibrant and alive. I never saw any women dressed like they are in this film. They look like something out of a fifties catalog.

What I remember of the sixties and especially 67 was the very short skirts the girls wore and the pop music, which was everywhere. Something you never forget. And the fact that everyone was much happier and natural back then than they are today.

People were much poorer back then and had less but they were happier. Of course the war messed a lot of people up and I met my fair share of broken people.

I was out in Singapore in 67, which in those days was a blend of the UK and traditional China. But life was fun even if it was a lot simpler back then and quite beautiful, even though people including myself were sometimes hungry.

Nothing in this film resembled 67 in any way at all.

This movie moved me to stop watching it. I gave it a shot, 30 minutes into it, I decided to shut it off. I don't know who the people giving it good rating are, but probably the actors in the movie I have watched movies that I kept watching even if I didn't like it because i wanted to complete it. This one. not at all,

I'm sorry.. I can't understand the high ratings for this movie. Obviously very low budget and the acting is a little stiff at times.. I appreciate a good indie film but the acting just wasn't believable for me

I love a good low budget, indie flick from time to time but this film falls flat on its face. The acting seems forced and it doesn't represnt the period accuratley at all in my opinion. This movie is like what a millennial in 2018 thinks the 60s were like. The US southern accents are atrocious. The music is too loud behind some of the dialogue to the point that it's sometimes difficult to ascertain what the actors are saying. I had to just turn it off after about 30 minutes because it was just too cringe when taken all together. The positive reviews here have got to be the cast, crew and perhaps family members of them because there is no way any unbiased viewer got any sort of enjoyment out of this.

This film has such a wonderful sense of period detail. It really makes you feel that you are there, sharing the anguish of the women left behind when their men go off to Vietnam. Absorbing and poignant. Recommended.
