This movie may not have a lot to show off, but it was actually filmed in my my home town. It has the charm of a small Canadian film with references like "Degrassi". A few surprises along the way.

I thought it pretty funny and a different topic to delve into as a story.

Its a great movie, it should have had a sequal and needs a sequal to make it better, as part 1 would have set the plot of a greater part 2 many cannabis fan would love as there isn't many realistic cannabis movies out there to educate about narcs, don't trust anyone

Good idea executed poorly. Story about a home schooled teen who decides to goto public school in his senior year. Its fairly dull from start to finish. The idea of having parents who grow weed as a career is fun but the director did a terrible job with it. Don't waste your time with this movie.

Growing Op strains hard to deliver edgy humour with a dollop of heart but is too stilted and derivative to carry it off.

Rated: 1.5/4

Jam! Movies

Growing Op has bad writing -- predictable and one-dimensional -- but after about 90 minutes, the story starts taking surprise turns that don't make a lot of sense.

Rated: 2/5
