this is a fantastic film. enjoyed it from start to finish. the acting is really funny (not in a good way) and the way it mocks (rather unintentionally) Friday is hilarious. it portrays Mexicans as a set off people who are not incredibly intelligent, which is fair enough considering its an American film. the characters are not as good as ice cube and Chris tucker, but are equally as funny. this is due to their rather poor acting which provides comedy in itself. its one of those films that you sit at home and think 'phew, what a bunch of losers', because effectively, thats what this films about. this comedy duo are not only one American minus a Mexican off being the new cheech and chong but are rather unfortunately talent wise off as well. they exaggerate their lines randomly and the explicit use of the word 'maan' is slightly annoying. but that said, this film is a great parody film and one to watch. i'm giving it a 10 out of 10 because i found it so bad that it was actually quite funny, and when somethings funny, its good.

Wow! Now I know I'm on the wrong planet. I would have given it a 0 rating but that would have meant the film never existed. But since it does I gave it 1. So having struggled to watch this film about 2 Bozo's who were the most unfunny comedy duo I've even seen on the screen, which I gathered is what passes for a Cheech & Chong film of today, I sadly have to say I found it to be an insult to good creative intelligent comedy. What made Cheech & Chong classic cult comedy was that there was hardly any slang words or overt violence with blood, as there was a needless overabundance of it in this film. Are these film makers so dumbed down that "Eat shi. and die mouther......" with bloody violence is the only way they feel they can make people laugh these days? Sorry but reality these days just isn't funny any longer. A lot of potential was wasted. But having said that I would urge you see this film so you can say to your friends not to see it being a waste of 90 minutes from ones life. I just couldn't see what was so funny about the Mexican gang culture, or any culture where kindness and love have no place because selfish greed and oneself is all that matters. I think the people have been brainwashed the wrong way enough. Now let me tell you about a film that was worth the price of its ticket........
