I felt this was a very very simplistic documentary without much to offer. The visuals were boring, the "history" was very simpletonish, and it seemed to gloss over large spans of time as if they didn't exist. This was particularly true for the period covering 1980-2000. Kind of like the way high school history textbooks do. Not hard-hitting or deep-digging at all. Not even propagandish, just "cutsy" (i.e. those little cartoon segments talling up the amount of money the US government spent on the "drug war" for the various chronological periods in the film) and lots of "funny noises" ("wham" "bo-ing", etc.). Someone has got to be able to make a better documentary than this about marijuana use in the USA.
