Review of How High

How High (2001)
5/10
Watchable, also for non-potheads
22 November 2004
Not a great movie, but it keeps your attention and does have some laughs. I don't do any of that ganja stuff, but this was still pretty entertaining to me.

Fortunately, fart and puke jokes were kept to a minimum (about two of the former, and just one of the latter); otherwise it was pretty intelligent and tasteful, all things considered. Lotta funny racial stuff. A bit of stereotyping, yeah, but most of it was intentional and for comedic effect (like the pimps, which weren't that funny, though). There were a lot of interesting and relevant social points in there, too. I think.

The thing about digging up the dead president and blending his hand was some fun sh!t, man! Too bad it didn't work (it was supposed to conjure up the guy's ghost).

Hot damn, Lark Voorhies is one mouthwateringly sweet babe. Worth watching just for her.

I don't reckon I'll ever bother to see it again, though. Or on second thought, maybe I will.
