Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 3/4 --
As a disputation on the merits of armed revolution versus living one's life in peace and privacy, the movie has little to offer but the obvious. But as an evocation of a mood and a moment, there's something going on here.

Product Description:
Three disaffected youngsters raise the stakes during one summer that shifts from ennui to danger.
Description by Vanguard Cinema:
Conceived in the midst of catastrophic confusions bourn of the Iraq War and produced under the influence of Vietnam War movie landmarks like Zabriskie Point, Revolution Summer portrays the lives of three young adults and their responses to a contemporary world climate of crisis, when hope is under siege. Mackenzie Firgens, in a star performance as the aptly named Hope, portrays a young woman
in San Francisco, gifted with vague idealism and abundance of common sense but no real direction. Her best friend Francine (Lauren Fox) is her opposite, dismissing any discussion of purpose, instead living day to day for the temporary highs of sex and drugs. When Hope meets Frankie (Samuel Child), who is planning an attack on an unknown target, their daily stakes are kicked up a few notches. As
the time of strike approaches, each of them is called upon to make a choice. Brimming with youthful restless energy, Revolution Summer is an intelligent provocation on personal responsibility in a time of great upheaval and change. A critically acclaimed directorial debut, featuring star quality performances by a talented young cast, Revolution Summer invites its audience on a sexy, dangerous journey down
the razor’s edge that separates anomie and violence.
