Movie Reviews of How High
Movie Review: I STILL LOVE THAT MOVIE
Summary: 5 Stars
IT IS FUNNY TO ME. I STILL FIND IT FUNNY. I CAN WATCH IT ANYTIME.Movie Review: Response to "alphaspace"
Summary: 4 Stars
I really don't think that alphaspace even SAW the movie considering the fact he/she is leaving out vital information.
He/she forgets to mention that the character of Silas (Method Man)is a young man who is the neighborhood's drug dealer/"witch" doctor. He creates medicine with the drugs he sells, and actually shows some intelligence and interest in his studies.
Also, "alphaspace" forgets to mention Obba Babatundé who plays the DEAN of Harvard university. He is a (gasp!) black man that is actually trying to keep Silas and Jamal out because of their first impression to him. He thinks they're brain dead, and he does everything he can to get them out of Harvard. Not to mention he forgets the character that Lark Vorhess plays. She is an intelligence black woman who also goes to Harvard.
The movie makes of all the characters, black white men women. Notice that when you actually sit down and watch the movie. They make fun of Silas and Jamal's roommates, which are actually white and Asian.
Method Man and Redman are not serious actors. If anything they're more jokers (check out their previous acting experience to see). If anyone takes this film seriously they really have NO IDEA what background the main actors have. This movie doesn't show anything of reality so don't take it so much to heart.
Personally, I like this movie when it came out. There's no meaning to it, and sometimes you need to watch such things. If you're interested in one of those stoner/dumb movies get this. It may be screwed up and just downright in bad taste, but you can't hide several of the funny scenes. I'm getting the DVD because unlike other people I can tell between entertainment and real life
Movie Review: Funk Doc & Johnny Blaze (A.K.A. Cheech and Chong 2000)
Summary: 4 Stars
Method Man and Redman show strong comic sensibilities and timing in their debut, How High. The story is funny enough, two bud loving slackers are forced to take the THC exam by their parents. Before the exam, Meth's friend dies and he grinds up his ashes and plants them with high powered cess. The result is that when Meth and Doc blaze before the test, it brings Meth's departed friend Whitey back as a ghost. He's real smart and helps Meth and Doc to ace their tests. The path eventually leads to Harvard and you can pretty much guess what happens from there. I was really surprised at how funny this movie really was and both of these guys have the potential to make some more real funny films, I just hope they do. Mike Epps has the funniest role in the film as a small time pimp whose obsessed with baby powder. The end starts to get a bit crazy(ala Animal House) but this is definitely worth a watch. Recommended.Movie Review: Shockingly funny
Summary: 4 Stars
Normally I am not at all a fan of "stoner films", the whole idea of drug use, let alone glorifying it in film upsets me to no end, but I have to say that this movie made me fall over laughing! It's very rare to see a movie anymore that can keep you laughing from begining to end, but if you like to laugh this is a great flick. Not for the kiddies however, but definately a shocking surprise to find out that it wasn't another stupid movie your wasting your hard earned money on!Totally worth the price, lot's and lot's of fun! Method Man and Red Man deliver an outstanding preformance comparable to that of Chris Rock and Chris Tucker! I can't even begin to fully explain the hillarity of this movie, you definatly have to see it to believe it!
Movie Review: Seriously people this movie is funny
Summary: 4 Stars
Other reviewers that dont get the humor and take this as a serious movie need to LIGHTEN UP! Seriously this movie cracks me up and I dont get sick of it. I've watched it several times and it still makes me laugh every time. If you are a stoner you'll probaly "get it" a little better and be laughing at these two clowns as they do bust out tons of funny catch phrases, but it is what it is, a stoner comedy made for stoners to laugh at. If you like these type of movies this one is pretty original for what it is and definitely worth adding to your collection because it isnt one of those "watch it once and you're over it" movies it stays funny.
