Not your typical stoner movie
21 September 2022
I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. Let's be honest and state up front that the 2 lead (female) characters are smokin' hot. Arguably "elevens" on a scale of ten. The movie opens with our 2 lovely young ladies waking up in bed together then engaging in some extremely provocative, playful quasi-sexual activity, in equally sexy attire. For the majority of the movie, our lovely ladies are either disrobing, partially disrobed, or in extremely alluring attire. Is our beautiful couple in a lesbian relationship? The subject matter is hinted at a few times but never stated outright or explored beyond surface banter. These positives alone are responsible for me eagerly watching the movie more than once.

The male portion of the cast is led by the surprise (to me) appearance of Kyle Mooney of recent SNL fame. I've never been a big fan of Mr. Mooney's work but then again he's been an SNL "B lister", only getting small bits. In this movie he really gets a chance to develop his character. A very cool surprise! He plays an adolescent high school kid, a bit socially awkward with raging teenage hormones as his most prominent quality. Perhaps a mix of Wayne and Garth from Wayne's World with a touch of Beavis & Butt-Head. It's truly a great role and highly elevated Kyle's status in my book.

It's a good story that keeps our attention with some truly funny lines and scenes. I'm a tad bit disappointed in the ending. It changes the overall feel of the movie from "all this stuff could really happen" to "ok this is a fantasy". But a big hats off to the movie's creators for showing us that girls can hang with the big boys when it comes to making great "buddy flicks" with a stoner edge. Like Wayne's World, Dude Where's My Car, Clerks, Jay and Silent Bob, etc. And the added eye candy here is just a bonus.
