It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.

it is finally so absorbing because it plays like a lyrical road odyssey that’s also a detective story.

While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

This movie has an inexplicable cult following of people who actually think it is decent. Now while I don't mean to disparage these fans, I honestly can't find what worth they see in this movie.I watched with an open mind but quickly got annoyed at the terrible acting of the protagonist, who wasn't able to sell any sort of comedy bit and over-all just gave a flat-ass performance. Long story short the main character is unlikable, unfunny and shallow. This does not make for an entertaining movie experience. This could have been (somewhat) redeemed if the writing was clever and gave the audience a good amount of laughs but sadly every joke made by the main character was cringe-worthy and lazy comedy. Nick Swardson seemed to be the only character in this movie that could sell a joke and get chuckles and this happens far too little. Every thing about this production screams Happy Madison which sadly has become synonymous with lazy and overall terrible movies. I actually rooted against the main character to get the girl. Of course he does but god knows why. If you are interested in this movie because of the positive audience response I wouldn't be fooled, there are much better irreverent and goofy comedies out there that aren't just a cash-in. Try Hot Rod.

This is a strange and interesting stoner comedy. The plot doesn't really have a clear conflict, it just kind of tells a story. A 35 year old video game tester (the best in his company) is evicted from his home when his roommate doesn't pay the rent because he would rather pay for Philippino hookers. He is forced to move in with his grandmother and her two crazy old roommates. He introduces the women to the wonders of cable television, weed, and video games, one of which he is developing himself. At work, he boasts about his, "crazy sexy roommates" as the reason he comes into work tired all the time. At his job, he is supposed to be playing a new game behind schedule due to many bugs in the system and reporting on them. A new girl is brought on to the project to make sure it releases by its proposed deadline. The game's creator (a weird, awkward man who thinks he is a robot) wants to date the girl, as well as the main character. A battle ensues, that can not be discussed without giving away the ending. I know, this plot is all over the place, but like I said, there is no conflict. Therefore the whole story just kind of...happens. This is a movie made by stoners (Adam Sandler's crazy group of friends) for stoners. It is definitely funny, and worth watching for the laughs, but it isn't exactly good. Plot holes in this movie are gigantic. The acting is questionable. The music is decent. The cinematography is variable depending on the scene. Altogether, this is a decent comedy, with good laughs and juvenile humor, and it is worth a watch.

I thought the movie was okay, I probably would have given it an 6 if it wasn't for that it's pretty sexist and degrading towards women. Don't know how many times they called the girls for whores ... It may sound pretentious but it might makesome who see the movie think it's okay to talk about women that way. Nowmost were virgins and did not socialize with so many women, which perhaps explains why they objectifies women all the time. There was even some gay joke I don't think was okay and it was maybe a little too pro drugs. Although the story was quite predictable, it was perhaps a little disappointing. For me it was definitely the old ladies who made ​​the movie good.

Absolute rubbish. I'm really not sure how it has managed to garner such a high rating on IMDb (maybe pot smokers are getting discounts from their dealers if they log on to IMDb and give this movie a high rating?) Basically this is a film about stoners, for stoners that was written by stoners.It's just a series of jokes about pot and sex all thrown together in one 90 minute montage, and it's not even technically proficient.There are lots of scenes that do absolutely nothing to advance the plot. There is ZERO character arc for the lead protagonist. There is almost no plot development (which makes for a completely flat and boring film) apart from the initial set up, and then a brief flurry at the very end which is meant to inject drama into the story. However this final attempt to salvage the plot from being a complete flat-line is so poorly executed, credulous and quickly resolved that it simply may as well not even be there. Even the way this film has been shot and edited together is confusing (at one point, because of the way the actor has been directed and the scene has been shot, the impression is given that the female lead may have something to hide - but no, there is no secret, just poor direction, shooting and editing.) Even the supposed love story in this film is nonsensical - the character of the female lead is simply not developed in any substantial way, and so we don't care about her because we just don't know her. She is literally there to play a formulaic part so that the male lead ends up with a girl at the end.It's just a really bad movie that has been poorly crafted, and which introduces several different themes but never really develops any one of them properly into a cohesive storyline or character arc - it literally starts us off a journey, and then gets lost in pothead woods.(This is probably the harshest review I've ever written on IMDb yet, by the way).
