Funny stoner comedy
3 Jun 2011
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is a movie about two stoner roommates who get kicked out of their apartment, just as the Shawshank Redemption marathon will be coming on all weekend. Their attempts to find a location to watch the marathon take them into rehab, while their moneymaking endeavors bring them into complex situations attempting to rip off "Mr Big."
This movie requires the ability to laugh at not only the funny parts of drug use, but also some of the negative aspects of drug abuse, as it does not sugar coat topics as much as some other movies in this genre.

Should be paired with "The Shawshank Redemption"
12 May 2006
Format:DVD
A very funny movie from director/poducer/star Mekhi Phiffer about two guys who just want to watch the Shawshank Redemption marathon on TNT. If you think pyramid schemes are funny or if you are a big fan of the Shank then you will love this movie. I admit it is low budget and straight to DVD but it is funnier than a lot of big budget blockbuster comedies that I have seen. Phiffer does a great job in his role as the big business entrepenuer. The plot is original and there are some really hilarious scenes. If you think about it, there are some parts of the film that really ring true. I grew up only seeing the TV edited version of the Shank and didn't know about the rape scene(Which is an important part of the plot) until much later when I saw the unedited version.

Amusing, worth seeing for free
8 May 2006
Format:DVD
We were able to see this DVD for free, which is an appropriate price for a silly movie based on the adventures of two stoners. Their goal is to watch THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION and start their own business based on an infomercial. They enter rehab to see the TV, get caught up in some other crime, basically wander around. There are one or two very funny scenes, one that I found extremely disturbing and offensive, and a happy, if implausible, ending.
If you already have pay channels and it's on, or if someone else offers to lend it to you, it's not a total waste of time, but don't spend money to see it.
