Magic Trip: Ken Kesey's Search for a Kool Place (2011)

A freewheeling portrait of Ken Kesey and the Merry Prankster's fabled road trip across America in the legendary Magic Bus. In 1964, Ken Kesey, the famed author of "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest," set off on a legendary, LSD-fuelled cross-country road trip to the New York World's Fair. He was joined by "The Merry Band of Pranksters," a renegade group of counterculture truth-seekers, including Neal Cassady, the American icon immortalized in Kerouac's "On the Road," and the driver and painter of the psychedelic Magic Bus.

For those already somewhat familiar with the subject, the directors' distillation of these 40 hours of film will expand their knowledge - if not their consciousness. But other viewers may spend the whole movie wondering exactly when the merry magic is going to kick in.

MIFF 2011, Film 4: Great documentary. An often hilarious commentary about the beginnings of LSD use in the 60Ã¢??s that, thankfully, doesnÃ¢??t pull any punches about the negatives either. The scene visually illustrating Kesey's trip during one of the CIA experiments that he took part in is absolutely brilliant.

Nick Schager 31 Jul 2011

At its best, Magic Trip evokes the freewheeling, idealistic, psychedelic vibe of an era's origins; at worst, it's a film in which people narrate their own druggie home movies.

Mick LaSalle 03 Aug 2011

The period footage shows all the principals, including Neal Cassady, who was only 38 but looked 52. Ken Kesey emerges as the film's hero - he is presented as a great American adventurer, the psychological equivalent of Lewis and Clark. Maybe that's not as ridiculous as it sounds.

Considering the quality of the source material, what Ellwood and Gibney have come up with is kind of amazing.
