Agreed... one of my favorite movie watching experiences of the year.
Great stoner flick! :)

reply

I didn't expect a huge film, and it wasn't billed as such, but it was a lot of fun and entertaining more that I was probably expecting. Also, the relationship of Mike and Phoebe was well done by Jesse and Kristen.

Do you need a bowman!?

reply

Yeah when it started I was expecting some low budget stoner crap but it surprised me.

reply

I liked it a lot too but like you mention it wasn't promoted as a big film and yet it got slammed for not doing big box office. Well... can't have it both ways, H'Wood!

Exactly----considering that both Eisenberg and Stewart are big-name stars, I was kind of surprised that this film didn't get the big push it should have gotten,particularly after I saw it. I caught up with it on DVD after missing it in the theatre. It only got a limited release---I don't understand why, because it was a really fun, and funny action packed and slightly off-the-wall flick. And,yeah, it's pointless to slam a film for being a flop when it didn't even get promoted in the first place---why it got slept on the way it did is a mystery.

There is so much nonsense that goes on behind the scenes that often has zip to do with the making of or the quality of a film. For all we know the distribution deal got 86'd when someone on high lost a game of golf! Or the studio that made it had so many recent hits they needed a flop to have something to write off at tax time!

Problem is the stars take the fall. Though Eisenberg and Stewart seem to be just fine, some stars get sunk by bad box office. Even one misstep has been known to radically affect an actors future roles.

Uh, you're a delusional Kristen Stewart fan who has been talking about her for years on IMDB. Your opinion is pretty worthless.

I liked it a lot. mike and Phoebe were funny as accidental stoner badasses


Rob Zombie is one of the greatest directors today

You said it! After 3 months of garbage playing in the theaters it was a breath of fresh air to see something ADULT!

reply

This movie was sensational, agreed! 🌟

reply

i just watched the movie and i actually really liked it too. i'm not really a fan of Jesse's but i thought both he and Kristen were really good in this. i'm also a big fan of Connie Britton's so it was a surprise (i had no idea she was in this!) and a treat to see her in it.

reply

I'm surprised to see so many positive comments. I really wanted to like it and the overall tone was fun, but ultimately I found it too lacking to really "like".

reply

/\This exactly.

reply

Honestly these comments couldn't be more fake than the chest on Pamela Anderson.

You always see comments like this on boards when they first come out. There are even sites that make comments look like they are real Facebook comments that are all positive but they can't be replied to, the people commenting when you try to find them on Facebook are fake and do not exist and you start seeing the same people comment on other movies with the exact same comments copied and pasted.

There is another on this movies board doing the exact same but for a pirate website where they make money off the adverts http://www.imdb.com/user/ur62539460/

Just look at that profile and all the comments, they are all the same leading back to the same web site.

It's obvious fake crap to hype the movie by people paid to do so or you get bots that can take over your account and make comments as if it was really you making the comment and you don't even know it happened, they have been doing it for years. They even have them go make realistic comments on other boards so if you look at their profile they seem real. I am pretty sure most of you will have seen things happen on social media sites where the same comment is repeated by numerous people, especially on Facebook where they say crap like you have won something and they leave a link and it always comes from a real friend, well those are bots using their account so you think it's real when the link is fake and usually malware of some sort or something not good anyway.



IMDB is not the first or last place you will see this kind of rubbish, people on youtube get paid to do it too.

They can even use old accounts that don't get used any more also. I had 2 facebook accounts and when i went to close the 2nd one i had comments all over the place about apps, movies, pages etc all saying how great they were etc and i had never heard of half of them.

I deleted the account but i had something like 300+ liked pages, well only about 3 or 4 of them were pages i personally liked when using the account so it goes to show they can abuse your accounts to boost things easily.

Exactly what I thought. To anyone with even a modicum of intelligence this movie was just plain dreadful. To try and beat it up here in the way the above posters have is rather pathetic actually.

reply

Unfortunately people like this are greedy and will do anything to feed their money addiction.

Bitchcraft...i mean Mitchcraft, you're pathetic attempt at trashing other people opinions is just that...pathetic. you must be one of the most paranoid, laughable excuses for a human being i've seen on IMDB (and that's saying something). you know you have no valid argument when you have to resort to the "THESE ARE ALL FAKE ACCOUNTS/FAKE COMMENTS" riff. bottom line...you're a complete moron and i suspect you are off your psych meds. weirdo. LOL.

reply

Pretty much the worst film I have seen in a number of years.
