Jeannette Catsoulis New York Times The War on the War on Drugs is a lively and well-executed satire that sweetens its occasional truths with rebellious humor. Rated: 3.5/5 Jan 28, 2006 Full Review Elizabeth Weitzman New York Daily News Generally witless ode to illegal substances. Rated: 1/4 Jun 24, 2005 Full Review Kyle Smith New York Post The War on the War on Drugs strings together 60 amateurish short films to tell us drugs are cool, man. Rated: 0.5/4 Jun 24, 2005 Full Review Prairie Miller Long Island Press This sly guerilla documentary takes pot shots, pun intended, at both the absurdities and victim injustices inherent in the US government's longstanding campaign against lighting up. Aug 8, 2007 Full Review Eric Monder Film Journal International The film becomes repetitive and dull. Mar 1, 2007 Full Review Doug Brunell Film Threat Drugs can be a catalyst to all kinds of creativity... and they can hamper it, too. Unfortunately, that seems to be the case here. Rated: 2/5 Dec 30, 2006 Full Review Read all reviews
