High Times Potluck

I really enjoyed this movie. After buying it used, I feel like I got a bargain for $15 bucks. "Potluck" was different and the old gangsters made me laugh. The main character, a favorite gopher for a mob boss, discovers the joys of being a viper, when a suitcase of high-grade pot is dropped into his lap, time and time again - lol.

If you like "tough-guy" type of humor, I reckon this flick is worth a view. Our mobster's relationship to the the older members of the gang will make you laugh, especially at the end. Stick it out to the end ya'll . If the movie starts to get slow, twist up another one and ride it out - lol.

I went to see High Times Pot Luck with a friend and was given the ticket as a gift. I did not really know what I was walking into but was interested and eager to see what it was about, being a fan of the magazine and also of the plant. I had never seen any movie produced by High Times but gave them the benefit of the doubt and I am very glad that I did.

The movie grabs you as soon as it starts and takes you on this extremely funny, witty, and all out in your face comedy. There are few movies that can stand with HTPL and the roller-coaster ride that you go on. The cast is excellent! The direction is extraordinarily innovative and capturing. This movie also offers wide variety of cameos appearances that each add their very own flavor to their scenes. An all around good time and I can't wait for it to come out on DVD. This is definitely a "Cult Classic" in the making.

If you like to laugh and come out of a picture feeling a little high, then this is the movie to see. Potluck takes you on a ride through the streets of Manhattan with a cast of cool underground players. A new cult film is born. There are a lot of characters to choose from including Jason Mewes, (Clerks and Silent Bob) Jason Isaacs( The Patriot)to Sylvis Miles( Midnight Cowboy)to Frank Gorhsin ( The Riddler)and about 20 others. I think this movie reaches all ages as it has so many different aged characters. You need to see it twice to soak it all in. Theo Kogan of the Luna Chicks puck rock band is very sexy playing herself and her songs are in different scenes throughout. She also sings live on stage.

In a day and age of corporate formula films, it is refreshing to see a film about New York that is shot in New York using actual New York Actors and streets that I have walked down. On the recommendation of a friend we went to see this film in the East Village and the story was clever, intelligent and well paced. It kept us interested and entertained which is more than I can say for 90% of the current crop of big budget Hollywood cineplex fare. In a city where anything can happen, everything does in this film. Even my 70 year old mom loved it.

The plot of this flick is pretty simple...I don't want to give it away to you, but it's not rocket science. That said, this cast really puts it together into what turned out to be a pretty funny and exciting movie. I'm a big fan of Jason Mewes and his role is great...Frank Adonis is also awesome at the lead role (think mob guy who sees the light!).

If you're chilling on the couch with some friends and want to be entertained for a couple of hours, I definitely recommend this movie! It's got the funny parts of any good stoner movie (you KNOW the folks at High Times must like this one...) and the action/plot of a good escapade movie. I give it the 5 leaf seal of approval!
