Unlike the Hippie Temptation, the Hippie Revolution showcases a positive retrospect of the Hippie movement. Mostly made up of a collection of montages and clips from past concerts, this documentary is nothing less than a fun ride through the summer of love and on the streets of Haight-Ashbury. Still, while the Hippie Temptation paints the Hippie youths as hopeless and wrong, Revolution pushed its audience to show how beautiful, pure and right the Hippies are. It is hard to not like this retrospect of the late 60's with its fun musical score and happy characters that the documentary shows us. Still, with the connection of Today Malone as the Narrator, the audience needs to question the motive of the documentary. Although she is portraying herself, she appears to be more than a staged performers as she also premiered in the Hippie Temptation as an acid trip victim. Some of her scenes appear to be improvised if not staged, let alone authentic like in a documentary. Overall. the message with the liquid light shows and excessive nudity and drug use makes you want to be back in the 60's and relive the moment that the Hippie generation had.
