This should not be called 'How High 2'. How does this relate to 'How High'? This movie is so corny, nothing like 'How High'.

Terrible Sequel
snakes399227 May 2019
This sequel was not funny and not even entertaining. The characters are very forgettable, none of the jokes are funny, there's no Redman and no Method Man. Redman and Method Man were great in the first movie, sure the first is not the best, but it's still funny and a classic. Mike Epps in this movie was not funny, he needs to pick better movies, because this movie is not for him. This sequel can go to hell for all I can care. They are a few jokes that are a little funny, but that's not enough to make the movie entaining or good.
Awful

Waiting years for this movie was like waiting hours for food that ended up tasting nasty.

Warning: Spoilers
I will start out by saying this is a straight to TV movie.
The original "How High", starring Redman and Method Man, was about two stoners going to Harvard smoking pot laced with a dead friend's ashes, meanwhile an evil dean wanted them out. That film is hilarious.
But this film here, starring Lil' Yachty and DC Young Fly, is about two young stoners looking for their missing weed...I'm not even gonna waste time talking about the story.
Universal took too long to greenlight a sequel, but they kept hiring people who wrote bad scripts (according to Redman and Method Man), and they were very cheap with the film. Universal carelessly--I repeat CARELESSLY--decided to work with MTV, BS the script, cast a mumble rapper, throw in DC Young Fly and several different people, and release it as a straight to TV movie. Universal made this movie to shut fans up.
There were a few decent moments in the film, few giggles, but that's not saying much for the film. Mike Epps made an appearance as Baby Powder, with a wig, but that didn't cut it. Al Sherear came back, but now called I Got Money, for 2 seconds. However there were boring scenes and corny scenes. The scene where the main characters pretended to chaperone a high school field trip and discover a suspicious character who ended up stealing the weed bored me to death.
This movie is horrible, the CGI is lazily done, the plot is weak, this film was all kinds of bad. Universal just sat on this movie for over a decade, they defecated on it, let it sit at a window for a week, then rinsed it, microwaved it, and went "You got your movie. Happy?" This film rubbed me the wrong way.
If you love the original How High film that much, just avoid wasting your time watching this movie. Period.

If I could give zero stars I would have. This is horrible. No one wants this garbage.

Seriously who green lighted this and how broke is Mike Epps to do this garbage?
Pretty basic, this is not How High 2, this is garbage. This is a terrible waste using a name of something that was good to try to sell.
No one's buying.

Not worth the watch. Not having Red and Meth in it killed the whole idea of this even being a sequel to the original. This MIGHT have done better as a stand lone movie with a completely different title. Calling this a sequel to one of the greatest stoner movies ever is a blasphemous insult!
Go watch the first one !

Not even a good stoner movie.
sean-rae14 May 2019
I imagine that filmmakers must think that a stoner comedy easy money. "stoners will like it" is what they must say.
I grew up on the original. it's by no means an amazing movie, but a cult classic. up there with 'half baked', 'grandma's house' and 'Friday'.
a strongish cast with hip hop legends.
THIS. this is not that. I don't think anyone involved has ever smoked. no link to first movie so title is a cash grab.
I felt old as I didn't know anyone who I was supposed to.
the pink haired guy mumbled his way through while the other does a really bad Kevin Hart impression.
not even so bad it's good, just plain awful.
for me, this is by far the worst sequel of the year so far, maybe the worst movie, period.
please avoid at all cost, go rewatch how high.
Why waste the sequel on trash
thagza9512 June 2019
No method man, no redman..low budget acting..this movie is about as good as today's rap music and so is their acting. What a waste, couldve had a great sequel but nothing but a cash grab with the title. Don't waste your time or brain cells.
So like I really liked it

Waste of time
thechouya25 July 2019
This is my only 1 star rating I never give 1 stars but this movie is a piece of sh... I don't know what's wrong with these guys who made the movie but this is the dumbest embarrassed movie I ever see. How they could do this to fans from the first one ....
No Red $ Meth!!?

Waste of half hour
carlos-campos-1053 August 2019
I say half hour because I started it but couldn't finish it because it was so trash and corny. Not worthy of the title. If those mumble rappers respected the OGs they wouldn't have agreed to do this movie with that title.
What a disappointment

Boo!!!
frankmeuse13 August 2019
Anyone who is saying it's good is obviously born in the early 2000's or later. The original was funny, followed a good story, and had GREAT rappers acting it. This is dumb, has 0 story line and bad rappers which makes for a bad movie imo.
Red and Meth made how high what it was.
Watch it, and decide.
ograsty20 August 2019
I'm in the middle of the movie, and i'm not stoned (yet)... That's why i need to say this now, when i still can... It's a good movie, i don't know... all of you...
Why so serious?
Nice comedy to watch in a sunny day. I have a banana smile from the beginning.
Nice
