Less a movie than a purposely crude series of musical vignettes and inside jokes for die-hard fans, Frank Zappa informs viewers in the opening scene that "Touring can make you crazy, ladies and gentlemen, and that is what 200 MOTELS is all about." The rest of the plot-less production is filled with more self-reflexive reminders, as the close-up eye and tape recorder signal that Zappa is watching everything his bandmembers are doing.

This is a movie that went completely over my head. I don't know if I didn't understand it, or if I just didn't want to, or maybe there wasn't even anything to understand about it, but visually, it seemed terrible to me. What it depicted was boring, and what surprised me the most was the fact that even the musical numbers didn't offer anything that truly interested me. Overall, I just didn't like it and found it annoying.
