Entertainment Reviews:
Despite its rough edges and airy trimmings, the film has a chilling nub of possibility to it.
Time Out
Rating: 2/4 --
For this audience, Wild in the Streets needs no serious political comment and no real understanding of how pop music and the mass media work together. It's a silly film, but it does communicate in the simplest, most direct terms.

Chicago Sun-Times
A movie entirely made by untrustworthy-older 30s, it is an attempt to cram into an antique philosophical and esthetic frame a phenomenon that had, long before they began shooting, transcended that frame.

LIFE
An often chilling political science fiction drama, with comedy, the production considers the takeover of American government by the preponderant younger population.

Variety
Shelley Winters, as George's mother, gives the most tasteless performance of her career, while Barry Shear directs as if he'd seen Dr. Strangelove a few too many times.

Chicago Reader
Rating: 2/4 --
Even acknowledging it as a sign of the times, it comes off as awfully obvious in its satiric implications, making easy points while limping its way toward a daft denouement.

Creative Loafing
Ranked #10 in Entertainment Weekly's Top Ten DVDs Of The Year -- This psychedelic-flavored 1968 entry is certainly not one of the 10 best films to be released on DVD in 2005, but it's the strangest.
Entertainment Weekly
Product Description:
A campy satire about a rock star/drug dealer who is elected president once the voting age has been lowered to fourteen. The title song was a big hit in the 60's and the film itself was well-liked by many critics.
