Movie review

From Time Out Film Guide

An advertising agency is taken over by a political group, who inject subliminal messages into their commercials. Any potential in this idea was overlooked by Kaczender, whose dull, plodding style is a turn-off, while Lee Majors makes a blank hero. For the real dope on subliminals, see Videodrome or They Live.
