DVD Reviews of Super High Me

DVD Review: Very Funny & Informative
Summary: 5 Stars

The best documentary I have ever seen on the subject at hand, and a very funny one at that.

DVD Review: "I Never Inhaled."
Summary: 2 Stars

Like another pot documentary (Waiting to Inhale), this film falls flat on intelligent dialogue and production values. Doug Benson reveals himself not to be a stoner, so much as a comedian whose gimmick is marijuana. There are many scenes when Doug doesn't inhale, but puffs out his cheeks and quickly blows out the smoke. And when he does actually take a toke, we do not get to see the effects the drug has on him.

The cover of the DVD is the only thing the filmmakers put any effort into. This film is too much documentary, not enough Cheech & Chong. At no time does Doug seem to be "super high." Not funny and not enlightening.

DVD Review: Could have been better....
Summary: 3 Stars

Let me start by saying that I am a proponent of both decriminalization and legalization (with regulations) so this review is not of the topic but the way it was presented. My review is basically that the topic was solid but Doug didn't follow it through. It's like writting a thesis paper and having a strong introduction and not enough information in the body of the paper. He could have done a lot more simply by giving more facts about marijuana and it's use. I expected something more like Super Size Me meets Grass, and sadly this isn't that movie.

DVD Review: A let down
Summary: 2 Stars

Doug Benson is a funny comedian but I didn't find him to be very funny in this movie. I think he got stoned beyond the point of being funny most of the 30 days he was high. Most of the content about legislation was common knowledge so I didn't learn anything knew. The most interesting part to me was the closing of legal, medical cannabis stores in California due to discrepancies between federal and state laws regarding marijuana. In the movie they show cannabis stores in California being shut down by the DEA (federal officials) despite the state law which has legalizing it. It was very shocking to see stores get closed down at random and have their patient records as well as their supply of marijuana confiscated and never returned even after they were legally allowed to reopen. It really shows the holes in the legal system of the U.S. Other than that, I think the concept of the movie had a lot of potential but was neither funny nor informative for the most part.

DVD Review: interesting and funny
Summary: 3 Stars

Overall it was interesting and funny. It had some slow moments and spent too much time on California's prop 215. Doug Benson looks the same stone as he does sober, and his jokes didn't suffer when he wasn't high. It's worth an hour and half of your time to for a few good laughs.

Description of Super High Me

Determined to find out the true effects of marijuana on the human body, stand-up comedian and former Stoner of the Year Doug Benson documents his experience avoiding pot for 30 days and then consuming massive amounts of the drug for 30 days. More than just an amusing story of one man's quest to get super high, this documentary also examines the hotly contested debate over medical marijuana use.
