Nice Dreams

I found Cheech and Chong's "Nice Dreams" a well crafted piece work. Not only are Cheech and Chong's performances very strong, they are also backed by a strong supporting cast, including Paul Rubens and Stacy Keech. Not as good as some of their earlier work but still high grade stuff, in my opinion.

I swear when I'd watched Nice Dreams in 1994 I'd assessed it rather silly to my taste due the offering touches in a neuralgic matter at my generation on the eighties deeply devasted by those smoke and white dust on their lives, nowadays as ripened brain revisiting this uncanny funny comedy I manage split the subject of the main preposition that make you laugh upon a countless gags concerning two weirdo guys selling marijuana covered as ace cream.

The duo comics guys already had started in a successful thematic comedy in UP IN SMOKE, CHEECH AND CHONG"S NEXT MOVIE, in fact anytime they didn't logged out of those smokey characters whatsoever, they pursued in this track until the topic was utterly sapped, so Nice Dreams worthwhile take a look for tons of hilarious sequences, mixing a slight sexploitation orientation and the wacko guys around, as the fruit cop character Noodles (Tim Rossovich) often groping Detective Drooler at surveillance at night shift, what a priceless moment.

Beware when it reaches on the highlight sequence at panoramic elevator a naked Cheech in dire straits running from the menacing "Animal", so get yourself ready to see a mocking of those wild times which smoke and sniff were meaning of forbidden things, otherwise on current time quite normal, Cheech & Chong are unforgettable indeed, unfortunately just a couple of pictures were released on DVD in Brazil.

Thanks for reading.

This is probably Cheech and Chong's best movie. My daughters often ask me (well maybe not often, but once in a while) which one I think is funnier: Cheech or Chong? My answer is always the same: Chong is funnier, but Cheech is a better actor. This movie is a great example. These guys are very talented and very funny. I talk to people my age (the bottom rung of the Baby Boomer generation) and they still think of C&C as two burn-outs that made some movies. Do people think that Charlie Chaplin walked around with a tiny mustache and a cane? Did Jerry Lewis walk around knocking glasses over? They're actors. Maybe their movies weren't always the best, but C&C are two of the greats. And "Nice Dreams" is one of their best.

These guys are great, from the records to the live shows to their movies. This movie has some great scenes, the scene's with Pee Wee and Timothy Leary. The look of the film dates it perfectly. I've liked this movie since the first time I saw it 10 years ago. Everyone I know loves Cheech and Chong. 2 THUMBS UP ^^

Nice Dreams (1981) was the second sequel to UP IN SMOKE. The lovable burned out slackers are selling "ice cream". But there nothing more than a front for there drug dealing (pot what else?). Sargent Stedanko is back from UP IN SMOKE. He's no longer the same straight laced cop. Stedanko has turned into the very element he's been trying to catch. The duo is stashing away some smoke for a rainy day. They want to pull off one big score so they could retire in the "tropics". Unfortunately, Sargent Stedanko and his motley crew of narcs want to bust them and lock 'em up forever. Can Cheech and Chong "retire" in luxury? Will Stedanko finally bust them? What will happen to the duo when they stray away from their favorite drug and experiment with others? How does the good doctor Timothy Leary fit into the picture? Watch NICE DREAMS and you'll find out!!

Another funny film from the team of Cheech and Chong. I find it to be hilarious. Not a classic by any means. Just a funny movie that stars everyone's favorite stoners.
