Plot
Greetings is an episodic film about three friends: Paul, a shy love-seeker, Lloyd, a vibrant conspiracy nut and Jon, a peeping tom and aspiring filmmaker. The film satirizes free love, the Kennedy assassination, the Vietnam War and amateur filmmaking.

Reception
Howard Thompson of The New York Times wrote: "Some of it is amusing, as when one of the lads is coached in the technique of draft-dodging. Most of it is strained and unfunny, with some generous nudity for nudity's sake and a hip sprinkling of four-letter words."[4] Variety wrote that the film "has its sluggish sequences" but "[m]uch of the production has a freshness that is infectious."[5] Kevin Thomas of the Los Angeles Times called it "the funniest film since The Producers—and stylistically its superior. It has the fresh and uninhibited wit of the best of the student films yet has the grace and control to sustain itself throughout its 88 minutes."[6] Roger Ebert of the Chicago Sun-Times awarded the film three stars and wrote: "What holds the film together is not its plot (there isn't one) but its attitude, its general instinct for what is funny in our society."[7]
Greetings holds an 88% rating on Rotten Tomatoes based on seventeen reviews.[8]
