Good concept, poorly executed.

Brilliant and touching

if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

Simply astonished by the way this film was put together! Great editing, solid camera work, excellent graphics, well-structured and highly entertaining from beginning to end. Amazed at how this film encapsulates so many aspects of the failed Drug War and by the original content which deviates from the same fact list that most films of this subject cover - especially the history of NZ cannabis being established by a Catholic order of nuns. What would Mother Mary Aubert say about the prohibition of her most valuable crop? This is the kind of activist film that should be on every TV station. Download this film so that the producers can make as sequel!

As a pothead I've been waiting for this movie to come out for a long time wondering why no Kiwi film maker has bothered to tackle the elephant in the room! Kiwis have the highest rates of cannabis use IN THE WORLD and the highest arrest rates for cannabis use IN THE WORLD! ...FINALLY, someone has related all the facts surrounding the bogus prohibition... and then I find out the director, Arik Reiss, is not even a Kiwi, he's from South Africa. Well, regardless of his nationality, he's done a perfect job of compiling historical facts, commentary from a strong cast and street action into an almost flawless narrative! Watch this film! I believe it will be available for download on VHX.TV soon - well worth it! Support the film makers, they deserve it!

This movie blew me away, and if the guys that made it are stoners it disproves all the stupid allegations that prohibitionists make about pot making you slow and stupid. Clearly not the case here, every angle gets covered here, and prohibition gets smoked! The medical segment was of particular interest to me as the survivor of a motorbike accident who now relies on cannabis for pain relief. How the hell can oxycontin be legal for me to take in huge doses but a herb that has 4,500 years of proved safe medical efficacy is banned. That sack of shhhhhh PETER DUNNE - what a DOOSH! NZ HAS GOT TO GET RID OF DUNNE! Wake up, New Zealand! 1.legalize cannabis 2.tar and feather Peter Dunne in the streets of Wellington.

The film makers went to enormous lengths to gather perspectives from ex-policemen, scientists, doctors, economists, addiction specialists and policitians to slam the US- style prohibition that has been imposed on New Zealand and every other country. Even graphic artist and former Black Panther leader Emory Douglas makes an appearance.Expertly edited, the film weaves multiple story lines together in a narrative arc that comes to an inpiring conclusion, as they get their validation from 72% of New Zealand voting in favour of their position in a televised debate before a national audience, proving that it's only a small, ignorant minority that is keeping the Drug War fiasco going.
