Reception
On review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, the film holds an approval rating of 100% based on 5 reviews, with a weighted average rating of 7.2/10.[3]
Robert Koehler of Variety stated that "[the film's] rough production values and flubbed comedy contrast with the amusing and plentiful voice-over narration and the dazzling graphic design that suggests Peter Max on ecstasy."[4] Ted Fry of The Seattle Times wrote: "There are a few laughs, but most of the characters in the loosely connected series of sketches are such venal, vile creatures that it's hard to imagine identifying with them even on a jokey or cartoonish level."[5]
