VHS Movie Reviews of Up in Smoke

Movie Review: Cheech and Chong's Comic Time Capsule
Summary: 2 Stars

When "Up in Smoke" premiered in September 1978, straight and stoned patrons laughed hysterically at the cinematic debut of Cheech Marin and Tommy Chong. Seen today, the film survives as a period piece - terribly uneven and less amusing with the passage of time. Stacy Keach makes an excellent foil for Cheech and Chong's pot-laced antics, but the duo's comedy albums were much funnier.

Movie Review: A Stoner Classic
Summary: 5 Stars

I've seen this film many times and even though I can quote many of the lines exactly, I still end up laughing. Time after time this film reminds me of when I've done many of the same things as our 2 heroes. Riding in a car so full of smoke you can hardly see out the windshield. Sucking on a small roach that gets aways from you and burns the back of your throat, etc. Cheech is wonderfully hilarious and Chong is everybody's best friend. Easily their best film ever. I hope they reunite for another one someday before one of them dies.

Movie Review: Lost youth?!
Summary: 4 Stars

Could be I lost some of my youth doing just a Cheech and Chong did... enough said. Great stoner classic, and wow my own teen decades later enjoys the "old" time humor.

Movie Review: great movie
Summary: 5 Stars

Summary of Up in Smoke

Cheech & Chong's first cannabis comedy is also their best, a souvenir from the more carefree days before "Just Say No," when people did not feel so defensive about inhaling. In 1978, the prevailing spirit was more like "Just Say Blow." Even New Yorker film critic Pauline Kael liked it (the movie, that is), adding that it was "an exploitation slapstick comedy, rather than a family picture, such as Blazing Saddles or High Anxiety--which means that it's dirtier, wilder, and sillier." The story has to do with bumbling potheads Cheech & Chong searching for primo bud, while being tailed by a team of inept law-enforcement officers, led by Sgt. Stedenko (Stacy Keach). Sample dialogue: When a cop pulls them over to ask if they are any illegal substances in his vehicle, Cheech replies: "Not any more, man." Up in Smoke is an irresistibly silly and charming movie that--despite, or perhaps because of, the national furor over drug use--plays today like a relic from a bygone era, a sweeter, more open, more innocent period in our history. --Jim Emerson
