Hilarious old drug culture movie about two stoners out looking to score some weed. Their adventure takes them to Tijuana, Mexico where they pick up a customized vehicle made entirely of liquified weed that has been spun into a fiberglass type substance. The Narcs are on their trail constantly but are all a bunch of idiots. Every turn of the way, when the dopers go one way, the Narcs go the other. The dopers are driving around in millions of dollars of dope, but can't find any, and the Narcs are too stupid to find water in the middle of the ocean. The movie is funny because it shows dopers exactly the way they look. They wind up at a battle of the bands at the Roxy in LA. The whole movie is so stupid that it is funny. You'll enjoy this film!
I really like the quality of the video. It was great to see it again, and share with a buddy.

I can't believe I've watched this movie from time to time for 30 years now and it's STILL timelessly funny. The 1970's stand-up duo who sold thousands of comedy albums hit paydirt with their first movie, Up In Smoke. Followed by five sequels, this first film is considered by most to be their absolute best. And you didn't have or had to be in the "pot-culture lifestyle" to get the jokes either. A true comedy classic. Paramount released it first in 2000 with a couple of extras but now in 2007, a new Special Collector's Edition has toked it's way to stores. But is it worth a repurchase or should you save your stash? At first glance this 2007 version's cover from the original 2000 issue doesn't look worth it, but trust me it's a vast improvement. First, the new menus are nice with new smokey animations, a strange-at-first CGI-like animated music video for the album version of Earache My Eye complete with the full original monologue, a quick video version of the movie where all you see is each time every actor says "Man" in it (trust me, it's funny), a couple of 70's radio spots, and be it slightly too short, an 11 minute retrospective on the movie with Cheech, Chong, and director Lou Adler. Even the movie's picture itself has been greatly improved, with an amazingly colorful picture free from any blemishes whatsoever. The 5.1 mix, commentary, and deleted scenes are ported over from the 2000 release, so this is one double-dip you can toss the original for. Highly recommended for your stoner library, even just for the comedy-in-general one. (RedSabbath Rating:9.0/10)Read full review
