Don't worry about the story just enjoy the moments, step back in time and have a great laugh.
A pair of movie megastars lost to the fog of time or possibly grass!
If you don't like Cheech Marin or Tommy Chong, this movie probably isn't for you. Although Cheech's recent work doesn't resemble his work with Chong. If you like Tommy Chong in that 70's show, you will most likely like this movie. And if you have any interest in Paul Reubins in his pre-pee wee herman years, this is the movie for you.
The story isn't much, but it has a semblance of a story to keep things moving fairly smoothly- unlike some other Cheech and Chong films. The gags and jokes work very well for the times, and hold up fairly well over time. This movie is less a variety show than later Cheech and Chong films. Although there are a couple sequences that don't seem to fit very well with the movie.
This movie is a must see for any fan of the drug culture. And most fans of that 70's show will probably like this movie.
Go watch this movie and Up in Smoke now!!. You can skip other Cheech and Chong titles
Even if you've never watched a Cheech and Chong movie, you now of them and what to expect from their movies: stoner-slacker humour with heaps of drug references and ingestion. This is no different though the jokes don't hit their mark as often here.
There's still some great one-liners and scenes but there's also a lot of times where they just seem to rely on being stoners or slackers to attempt to get a laugh. The writing here just feels a bit lazy at times.
Is reasonably good fun though and has good momentum (largely through each plot development being random) so is hardly dull.
Overall, hardly their best work but not too bad.
Lo sapevi?
- QuizAccording to Tommy Chong and various sources, this movie made more money on a second-run on double-bill with The Blues Brothers - I fratelli Blues (1980) than it did on its first release. Interestingly, Paul Reubens appears in both films.
- BlooperIn the scene where Red and Chong walk into the music store, Chong picks up a Fender Stratocaster and starts playing. The camera cuts around the store and, when it cuts back to Chong, he is suddenly playing a Gibson Les Paul.
- Citazioni
Cheech (singing): Mexican Americans / love education / so they go to night school / and take Spanish / and get a B.
- Curiosità sui creditiThe music was played just a second before the Universal logo appeared.
- Versioni alternativeIn the "Diamonds" TV edit, the scene with the stolen slot machine is significantly lengthened. The scene shows Mr. Neatnik (Sy Kramer) being inadvertently squashed by the slot machine when it falls out of the van, and Cheech and Chong eventually pulling it off of him. He sits up and cries, "My hands! My hands!" The theatrical version ends there. The TV version continues on, with Neatnik actually following the duo into their house and yelling about pressing charges before he notices all of the movie memorabilia that Cheech has stolen from the movie studio. Neatnik proceeds to identify the various garments and which actresses wore them in which film, swooning over each one. Cheech and Chong largely ignore him until he states he is willing to drop the charges if they will let him have the garments (which sets up a later TV-exclusive scene revealing him to be a transvestite); Cheech dismissively agrees and Neatnik helps himself. The scene ends there.
