Was an ok film. I don't smoke weed so probably dont fully get it. Was pretty funny though. To be honest I only wanted to watch it for Theo Kogan and Lunachicks which was awesome =) I kinda liked how it was filmed and it was just nice and simple. Acting wasn't the best but I wasn't expecting much. Worth a watch for stoners I guess, lol.

This is a High Times production. When I read the cover, it had shown all the awards it won at the New York Film Festival. From beginning to end, this movie hit every myth, rumor and false statement about weed HEAD ON. It's funny, it's full of heart, and the different characters that intertwine are one of of a kind. This movie caught me off guard. I had to watch it twice to make sure I saw, what I saw. Definite must see for anyone who thinks anything about weed.

This film starts slow but like any good druggie comedy picks up the pace once a dope dealer gets killed in a robbery. His stolen stash makes the rounds of mafia hitmen drug dealers and a punk rock band. The story descends into anarchy towards the end as everyone gets high and has a good time. well except for the dead dope dealer. I spotted a few cameos including Tommy Chong at the big drugs rally at the end.

É um desses filmes bestas americanos sobre maconha, mas consegue ser muito muito muito mal realizado. A história é sem pé nem cabeça.

A witless collection of stereotypes and clichs.

The movie's more egregious buzzkills -- hazy plot, jarring non sequiturs, pointless pothead-celebrity cameos -- defy even herbally enhanced viewing.

First-time Australian director Alison Thompson was either dipping a bit too heavily into High Times' stash on the job or really doesn't have a clue what she's doing.

It could prove a wonderful test case for the therapeutic benefits of medicinal marijuana. For if weed can dull the pain, headaches, fatigue and crushing boredom that result from this so-called film, surely it can cure anything.
