I've wanted to watch this movie from a long time. Only knowing that it has a lot of "greenery" in it. Thoroughly enjoyed the movie with lots of laughs. Amazing score and lovely shots of Amsterdam itself. Highly recommended if you are up for some feel good comedy gold. The fairy tail twist adds a heartwarming effect to 'a stoner movie. It is an awesome way to tie in a nice love story. The plot was fun and enjoyable. I have never seen anything like this movie, The movie is very original and I enjoyed the wit of it, excellent stoner comedy made from A to Z to be enjoyed high, and it is enjoyable. I saw it 6 times with different friends each time and every single person absolutely loved it.

If you love Stoner movies you'll enjoy it, if you don't... you probably wont :) Its stupid, childish and tacky... and I enjoyed the hell out of it. If you've ever been to Amsterdam and got stoned you'll get all the in jokes. Probably longer than it needed to be, but its low budget excuses most of the issues with editing and production. Acting is a little wooden, and the 'bad guy' reminded me more of a gangster leprechaun, but the supporting cast keep the laughs coming and the dwarfs... evil dwarfs.

Fantastic to see Howard Marks give his final performance on screen (RIP Howard we miss you!).

*note: Amsterdam Coffeeshops aren't really like this but never mind its fun! Non stoners probably shouldn't bother though...

This is the Brothers Grimm, if they were on pot. Lots and lots of pot. Fitting I saw it in Germany this week but its under another title here in EU (Amsterdam?) I adored it. It is crazy. Admittedly I am a fan of Billy Boyd and wanted to see more of him, and with his crazy Scottish accent, he stole the film. Beautifully shot in Amsterdam which makes the city a character of sorts. The plot was fun, once I accepted I was in fairy tale and enjoyed the good knight battling evil for the princess cliché. But primarily its a comedy. Well a trip. Well a stoner comedy. Im not sure what it is actually- -It is definitely a trip, with references to every fairy tale imaginable. Would recommend for the whole family if it wasn't for all the drug taking. Can say I haven't seen anything like it since - well the 80s heydays. Had to review it as a non-smoker. Well mostly. But two big thumbs up. Original.

This is one of the funniest films since Cheech and Chongs Up In Snoke. Just simply hilarious and this comes from a guy who doesn't Smoke. This is a film that is just fun and goofy, however a rather good depiction of some of the stoners in the Netherlands. The characters are well thought out and portrayed to the extent that you really feel for them.

A British fantasy comedy done as a variant of Jack And The Beanstalk. A young man heads to Amsterdam to find his father who runs a surf themed smoke shop. After finding his father he finds out his shop is failing due to the shop across the road that takes all the business with their green giant theme. The young man ends up meeting a mysterious homeless man who gives him a magic seed. The seed ends up in the toilet and the next day a massive pot tree takes up the whole store with buds the size of pumpkins. This puts him back in business but soon has the competing store plotting on how to steal the bud and enter it into the Amsterdam Bowl.

This is a light stoner flick mixed with a bit of Time Bandits and Jack The Giant Slayer type themes. It is watchable (better if you're high yourself) and you will laugh a few times. Not for kids though as there is constant joint smoking and coarse language (joint smoking is hard on the throat). All in all not bad and they even throw in a few minutes of animation. There was even a moral or two but I can't remember.
