Contentar Best movie of this year hands down!
Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
Candida It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
Haven Kaycee It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film
daviddaveinternational First off, you have to be a hard-core Cheech and Chong fan. If you aren't, anything rating less than a "10" means you're not with it, man. Maybe if you're 40 years old and younger, you'll not dig this scene, man. This movie has the same soundtrack from their first album with animation added. Had it not been for the original soundtrack, this movie would have bombed just as bad as the latest Three Stooges movie. I think this movie is the greatest tribute to Cheech & Chong's work to date. ALL voices are by those dudes, man. I won't give any more away but will tell you, get to your nearest WalMart and find the crappy DVD section and score this DVD. It will be the greatest addition to your Cheech and Chong collection. Trust me, man. Would this face lie, man?
Thomas Connors Jr. I've always been a Cheech and Chong fan, so I was looking forward to Cheech & Chong's Animated Movie, but basically it's an animated "Greatest Hits" collection of some of their audio skits from their albums. The animation is pretty decent, looks bright and vibrant in High-Def. The animation is better than a Flash animated movie per-say, but it does have that type of feel to it. The movie segways between set pieces, and really all I can say is if your a fan of the duo you'll still enjoy it even though it's not new material. It reminds me of the Looney Tune movies that used old animation mixed in with new in a way.It could have been worse though, it is fun for what it is, as long as you don't go into it with huge expectations.
Alley Marin It's a new medium with old material, as Cheech and Chong's greatest hits get animated, or reanimated, perhaps. In the fashion of Still Smokin, Animated Movie plays out in a series of vignettes, with the time-tested comedy skits that originally put them on the map.The bits are so similar to the original recordings; it was hard to tell if the duo had even spent much time in the studio. Classics like "Dave", "Let's Make a Dope Deal", "Sister Mary Elephant", "Sgt. Stadanko", "Pedro and Man at the Drive-Inn" and "Trippin' in Court" all get a visual treatment. But the biggest pay-off was the final bit, an animation to accompany the metal/funk comedic classic, "Earache My Eye". The boy's also bring some new tunes along for the ride, including the "Cheech & Chong Anthem (WEed Are The World)".We're also introduced to Buster the body crab; a pot-loving pubic louse that ties each bit together with his disastrous mishaps in the pursuit of mary jane (some of Buster's shining moments take place in parodies of 2001: A Space Odyssey and Slim Pickens riding a nuke in Dr. Strangelove). But other than that, nothing new is brought to the rolling table.One would think that Cheech Marin and Tommy Chong's brand would mature after a four- decade career, but Cheech and Chong's Animated Movie resorts to nothing shy of crude toilet humor, and yes, lot's of inhaling, Waylon.Yet not all blame can go towards the stand-up comedy duo, as the film's directors, Eric and Branden Chambers, elaborate on the toilet humor, with all the over-the-top fecal, urine and body-hair visual absurdities they could fit into an eighty-minute animated feature film. They are also credited for writing the additional material.Overall, Cheech and Chong's Animated Movie still hits the mark, for fans who have heard the same routines a thousand times, or for newcomers looking for dope and fart jokes from before the Kevin Smith generation.Either way, Cheech and Chong are still smokin. 8/10
Hellmant 'CHEECH & CHONG'S ANIMATED MOVIE': Four Stars (Out of Five) Just in time for 4/20 the popular stoner comedy duo Cheech Marin and Tommy Chong are back with their first movie together in 29 years (since 1984's 'THE CORSICAN BROTHERS') and their first animated flick ever. It's really just a bunch of their old comedy skits (from their comedy albums) done to animation. For fans of the duo it's nothing new really but I'm not that familiar with their work. It's embarrassing to admit, being a film nut, but I've never seen one of their film's all the way through (I've been meaning to go back and watch them for years now) and have only seen pieces of them years ago. I've also never heard one of their albums so for me the material was all fresh and funny. People that know the classic stoner duo's material well might be disappointed that it's all old stuff but I liked it and liked the film as well.Cheech and Chong do all of the voices in the movie playing out bits from their grammy winning comedy albums like "Dave's not here, man", "Let's Make a Dope Deal" and "Sister Mary Elephant". It's all written by the duo and directed by Branden Chamers and Eric D. Chambers. The skits are portrayed in a really 'old school' cartoon fashion (which is pretty cool in my opinion). The soundtrack also features nine new songs by Cheech & Chong.The duo is legendary, so to some, this film lacking anything new (other than the music) might disappoint but it seems like it could still be good nostalgic fun. I loved the classic old fashioned animation and the comedy was refreshingly different than other stoner flicks out there right now. The comedy team is most famous for spoofing the stoner stereotype perfectly and has been criticized by some for perpetuating it. Anyone nowadays should be educated enough to know that marijuana users don't generally act like this in reality. It's an exaggerated joke, which happens to be really funny. I really enjoyed this movie even if it has nothing new to offer; it was new to me.Watch our movie review show 'MOVIE TALK' at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DlL2HwB_YmA
