Breakinger A Brilliant Conflict

Whitech It is not only a funny movie, but it allows a great amount of joy for anyone who watches it.

Janae Milner Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

Celia A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

Ken Marley Listen, everybody this movie was so funny and good at least to me when you watch it while high its the perfect movie. While I watch this movie I laugh harder and harder each time it sucks that this movie was posted for FREE online. All Snoop & Wiz are doing is promoting Young & Wild & Free and weed smoking and having a laugh! If you think this movie is bad, you really shouldn't be here or have no business watching this kind of movie, because you don't watch a weed movie then post disrespectful comments like that. Some of ya obviously didn't put their ganja goggles on! It's free entertainment, so stop complaining. If you can't appreciate this movie I think you should seek help immediately, if you don't like weed then why are you here?! It doesn't make sense.

A_Concerned_Critic Note: Not that it genuinely matters, but the follow contains spoilers for the entire film.Mac & Devin go to High School is a truly remarkable human achievement. Never before have I seen a collective group of human beings manage to take nearly half a million dollars and somehow transform that into some of the worst 75 minutes in cinematic history, looking cheaper and more amateur than many budgetless shorts I've seen on youtube. You'd also think that a film made by musicians wouldn't contain at least 7 royalty-free midi sound files populating the supposed "soundtrack", but it simply serves as testament to how absolutely little anybody working on this project gave a f***.Starring in the film are rappers Snoop Dogg and Wiz Khalifa, Snoop Dogg playing himself, but essentially as a creepy 35 year old man still in high school, and Wiz Khalifa playing as a "stuck-up" nerd, suspiciously wearing a long sleeved, button down shirt for most of the film to hide his tattoos. Andy Milonakis also makes a cameo appearance as a wheelchair bound, fart sucking cripple, proving that it is actually physically possible for a human being to sink lower than rock bottom.The viewer is immediately greeted by a talking, time-traveling CGI joint from 1996, possibly once a banana on a stock model website, recolored white and given eyes and a mouth. He informs the viewer that it is near mandatory to watch this film while under the influence of marijuana, suggesting a parallel between seeing it uninebriated and watching a 3D film without the glasses. This should be the first warning sign to any rational human being to proceed no further, the fact that the writers are literally admitting that you have to be mentally stunted to appreciate the film's attempts at humor.I understand that this is a "stoner" film, as begrudgingly I am to acknowledge that as a genre, but even a film like Half Baked doesn't required one to forcibly drop their IQ to appreciate at least a portion of the film's humor."So what?" you might, suggest. "It is just a crappy stoner comedy. It isn't trying to act like anything more." and I would completely agree with this sentiment if the film wasn't such a bitter, morally reprehensible affair.A supportive girlfriend who dares suggest that she wishes for her Valedictorian boyfriend, the film's main character played by Khalifa, to attend Yale after finishing school is mocked as a "controlling b****". Snoop Dogg, on his 15th year of high school, manipulates the main character into consuming a cannabis brownie, transforms him into a lowlife hood, and decks him out in full body and face tattoos, (say goodbye to Ivy League or an actual job for that matter)and we are supposed to like and support both of these characters. Late in the film, Khalifa's girlfriend is shocked and dismayed at her Valedictorian boyfriend's new appearance and lifestyle (man, what a controlling b****) and in retaliation, our courageous protagonist cheats on her by having sex with a hooker.After both get arrested, I suddenly start to think "maybe the makers of this film aren't complete sociopaths at all. Maybe we'll see our protagonist realize his fall from grace and try to redeem himself." Nope. They both get out of jail and neither face any consequences for their actions. Khalifa graduates valedictorian, rapping a song instead of giving a speech, his girlfriend falls for him once again, and Snoop Dogg cheats on a math test, finally graduating from high school and banging a substitute teacher who for some reason spends the whole movie in revealing dresses= and heavy makeup.The film then returns to our CGI banana joint friend, who so eloquently enthralls the viewer with the film's thesis. "A lot of totally smart people smoke weed and it gives them inspiration and stuff. So it totally shouldn't be illegal, man," If this film is supposed to be exemplary of the intelligence level of the average marijuana user, I can only hope it stays illegal for a very, very long time.

fistygold I've wanted to watch this movie from a long time. Only knowing that it has a lot of "greenery" in it. All the while curious about these hip hop stars and their execution of this seemingly bizarre idea. I took the instructions of "slowburn" and lit up a joint as I waited for the show to start. And there was one thing I was surprised to notice. I could actually understand, no wait, FEEL everything that the movie was showing me. The humor typical of young American teens who are carefree on one hand, and fiercely loyal on the other. It touches a deeper nerve than what it shows on the outside. A deeper philosophy than what most might be able to grasp. Yeah its not visually "stunning", yes its script is minimal, yes it has first time actor Wiz Khalifa as the lead actor, but its understated charm lies somewhere else entirely. Somewhere it should be. And that's the camaraderie between Wiz and Snoop dogg, the fun times they share together, and the unflinching loyalty that their friendship has. There is a reason you are asked to be "medicated" while watching this short film. You are able to grasp the absolute core, the innermost quality that it has what most Oscar winning movies don't. And that is the innocence beneath all the cannabis and swears. The friendship as it should be taught by the leads, and the happy go lucky, carefree philosophy most would never be able to use in their lives. Its a far from perfect movie, I agree. But it has its own charm in the crazy characters of the college, the topsy turvy lives of the leads, and most of all, the N.Hale college, which is a small world in itself.

Greg Wilson Being a fan of the Mac and Devin Album I found the movie to be entertaining. Whilst I found many of the reviews on this site to be rather misinformed or misleading. First off Wiz's acting wasn't up to par because let's face it he's a rapper not an actor, contrary to popular belief not all entertainers can make that transition into a different medium. Considering the circumstances, his first time on screen, I think Wiz did great and if that were something he would want to continue to do it would take work and time. While some of the reviewers found Snoop's acting a little dry I would have to disagree. But with awards and even more nominations Snoop has already proved himself to be a successful actor. Check the facts, it's not up for debate.I can't stand the comparisons to "How High" or as one reviewer even went as far as"Superbad". As far as low budget films go it was pretty good. The "movie" was an hour long, more like a TV special if you ask me, so any comparisons to a higher budgeted feature film just seems unfair. If you didn't enjoy the film because of their promotion of weed culture Im sorry to say its Wiz and Snoop. What did you expect? I found some of the jokes to be corny, predicable, or unfunny while I found myself dying from laughter at times. I could have honestly done without Andy Milonakis character. To those of you that didn't enjoy the musical breaks in-between scenes, I regret to inform you that the movie was adapted from the concept of a collab album, not the other way around. You would really have to be a fan of the music and the album to truly enjoy the film. The film wasn't meant to sell an album that was released almost a year ago, nor was it meant to be an extended music video to songs they already have videos for. It was made to go that extra mile and give a little extra to the fans and they succeeded in that delivery.
