Audience Member Assassin Of Youth is a ridiculous film, but it has enough campy moments and cheesy acting to keep it lively and fun. Unlike films such as Marihuana and Reefer Madness, this one is more mild with its subject matter and not nearly as over the top, making it less fun to watch. Still, I think it's a fun, underrated B-movie that serves as a fascinating look into propaganda films of yesteryear and how people viewed such subject matter back in the day. If you like B-movies, you might have fun with this one. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Classic exploitation melodrama is better than most of its kind, managing a fast-paced, compelling - though ridiculous, as expected - story. Not great cinema by any means, but those who appreciate these kinds of films will find it a solid, entertaining entry to the genre. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Audience Member Almost as funny as REEFER MADNESS. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member I liked this movie a lot better than Reefer Madness, which is a similar film, but it still isn't a great movie. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member better just watch the good clips of this featured in the documentary "Grass", unless you're really bored Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member Pretty ridiculous B-picture about the effects of marijuana, but it was still mildly entertaining and had an easy to follow story for something so cheaply made.
