Review of Apotheosis

Unlike the other John and Yoko shorts I watched on UbuWeb, this one had a more normal format of having a big hot-air balloon go up with the camera inside capturing the sights from there as we watch from the point-of-view inside of said balloon. Also unlike the others, John Lennon was the one who created this film in contrast to the more weird ones created by Yoko Ono. Unfortunately, John's movie is dull compared to the Yoko ones that were at least a little interesting. I mean, there's so many minutes one can look at nothing but clouds and the print I watched was washed out and despite what another commentary here said, there was no evidence of a boom mic as there was absolutely no sound from what I saw. So on that note, I regretfully have to rate Apotheosis the poorest of the John and Yoko projects I've yet seen.
