I saw this film in its Regional Premiere at the SXSW Film Festival. The point of the film seems to be to openly steal Morgan Spurlock's 30-Day premise from Super Size Me and apply to stoner comedian Doug Benson being stoned for 30 days. It lacks the originality of Spurlock's premise. For one, many people spend every day stoned and the affects are well-known. I agree with their premise that that they want to show that marijuana doesn't do much harm to human health and therefore should be legalized. But if this is the best they can do, it should perhaps offer some caution about the degree to which marijuana effects cognitive thinking skills and behavior. While it is a funny film at times, it adds little to the political debate - unlike the Spurlock film - and doesn't really offer anything new or interesting. As the filmmakers (including Benson and director Blieden) volunteered during their Q & A after the film, they really didn't know what sort of film they wanted to make. Did they want to tell of Benson's humorous 30-day stoned journey? Did they want to make a political film about the dispute between state and federal authorities on Marijuana legalization in California? Or did they want to make a club film about Benson's comedy act during the period of his 30-day experiment? They couldn't really decide, so they combined all three efforts and the film shows that lack of a clear direction. Also, they throw in all of these cameos with Benson's comedian buddies that add almost nothing to the film. Incidentally, their 10th amendment Constitutional arguments are poorly presented since there is a long tradition of Federal legal supremacy based on Article 4, section 2 of the Constitution which has been the basis of America's Federal system of government for centuries. So it is good for a few laughs and its own political diatribe, but it could have been much better. One of the best points that they make is that medical marijuana is, in many cases, an excuse for recreational drug usage. They imply that it is sort of farce and real debate should be over the legalization of recreational use. If we want to have that debate, let's find better film makers and other advocates to make that argument, because this barely qualifies as a political documentary. I recommend the film "Grass" which is a much better film and presents a fascinating history of the prohibition of marijuana in the U.S.

I wanted to comment on JustCurious' review when he stated "But if this is the best they can do, it should perhaps offer some caution about the degree to which marijuana effects cognitive thinking skills and behavior." I would like to remind JustCurious that in this film the tests (SAT & Psychic Test) are actually performed BETTER under the influence of marijuana then the same test taken without the influence. He did slightly lower on memory tests, but was still above average rating. Might also throw in there that this movie is available for instant watching on Netflix. I found this movie very informative and educational, it started a bit slow and dry but by the end if it I had a more solid feel of what the truths and fallacies were with marijuana. It's pretty enlightening to see the plight and struggle of medical marijuana activists and people who try to provide the service despite the attempts to foil them lead by the DEA.

the main character seems to have some kind of depression problem. he is not motivated, has hardly an intellect, and half-asses his efforts the entire time throughout the movie. okay, i like to smok, a lot, but this movie was really a waste of time. the main character is such a slob lookin kind of guy, and he acts like a slob too. i am upset to see this man representing how good weed can be, or how it doesn't screw you up when you smoke, cause he looks blazed a lot. also, he is so damn boring, i can't remember his name, the is NO co-star or anything like that, and the movie has no direction. you would think if someone was serious about making a movie to sway public opinion, this would be kept off the shelves. on the plus side, you might get a few laughs in, as i did, but overall, wow. pretty much a waste of time.

Well I've smoked pot couple of times and I don't find it really interesting, only quite fun. I found this movie at my local videorental and I thought it would give me a closer and deeper look about the risks or benefits of Pot smoking and its medicinal use. All I got was a cheap movie about a mediocre comedian getting high and finding excuses for doing it so. I believe, if you are a pot smoker you are going to have a blast, not to mention if you ever attemp to watch this video while high... Awesome!!! Now if you are looking for a real documentary about the use and real positive/ negative effects of Cannabis in you body, please don't waste your time. I made the mistake already and I wish I was really high during those painful 80+ Minutes.

After being told to watch this by various of my stoner friends, i decided to watch it on youtube. This film is a joke turned documentary, a parody of Super Size Me but with cannabis instead of MC Donald's. What i expected was to watch this guy smoke tons of weed and cover subjects related to it, both of which are seldomely met. The truth is, Super High Me consists mostly of Doug Benson stand up act. So for the majority, we just get jokes about being high with a pointless celebrity appearance here and there, with very little concerning the legislation of cannabis. The main point is this, watching someone be sober for 30 days, then be stoned for 30 days, isn't exactly what i'd call entertainment or quality film-making. There's only about 3/4 tests. One for psychic ability (is there a point?), One for SAT scores, One for Sperm Count, and one for basic intelligence i guess you'd say. Each of these are covered with about 30-40 seconds of screen time, twice in the movie, so your obviously not getting a lot of information for the majority. This movie pretty much just glamorizes California throughout, cause thats the subject most covered. Yes they have dispendencys with different types of pot, yes they have DEA take downs, and yes they have medical mary jane. I covered that in a, probably grammar incorrect, sentence. Here, its covered for about 12-18 minutes, very boring. And for a movie called Super High Me, i expected to see way more usage. There's a surprising lack of content, and as i said before, the majority of the movie is his stand up act. The actual production is pretty limited. Basically a guy follows Doug around with a camera, not much else, no interview shots are planned or anything like a normal documentary, the only shot setups i really noticed are those of his stand up act, so pretty much its just a guy with a camera filming people talking. No questions are really asked, instead we just have stoners talking about gibberish regarding pot (Although that pot prince guy was pretty hilarious). The sound balance is uneven, at times music will play and render a speaker inaudible. The interviewees don't exactly have any significance, at one point one there is Brian Posehn, who just eats his burger, doesn't say crap, and the scene ends, and also one with his co-star Sarah Silverman, just taking some type of rip from some type of vaporizer, the guitarists of janes addiction is there playing some chords not saying a thing, the scene ends. This is pretty much proof that someone in the crew has to be sober for a movie to be good. So pretty much all you have here is stand up, which at times, is actually pretty funny. The actual focus of the documentary, isn't exactly 'focused'. Stoners just aren't that interesting, they smoke pot, and sit back and be lazy, thats about it. I'm a pothead who smokes pretty damn often, and i wasn't exactly impressed. Smoke a blunt and watch something a little bit more worthwhile like half baked or harold and kumar, this isn't really a entertaining or groundbreaking documentary. If your really interested in the effects and culture of cannabis, check out bbc's show Should I Smoke Dope, its pretty much what this should have been.

This is a film about a man devoid of talent. An artificial high times muppet desperately trying to be cool. Anybody and everybody should express themselves as they see fit. That said, this dull idiotic apple tastes way too bitter. Let's promote alcoholism and drug abuse yay! Cool! The dude 'aint cool with it - sad man. Nobody is after extended or even immediate use; those who claim otherwise are liars. Desperate folk in desperate times seeking hope and finding escape. Watch this movie to see how crap it is, and observe pineapple egg going all rotten and mistaken. Against the wall of medicine bursting clouds of ill regret and pips and seeds failing miserably to be real. Oh yeah! Macho Man Randy Savage let him rip it. Pigeon holes are cool.

This film is a lighthearted, funny, and wholesome presentation of (1) the conflict between state medical marijuana laws and federal anti-drug laws, and (2) the evidence that marijuana can't do you much harm. If you are steeped in cannabis culture or follow legal developments concerning medical marijuana, none of the information will be new to you. You already know that the war on drugs is out of step with the science about cannabis use, and you know the current state of the law affecting medical dispensaries. Benson is likable and wholesome, and the movie is pleasant and funny. Because the movie is not dense or righteous, it has the capacity to reach interested folks who aren't already in the know and don't want to hear a rant about legalization.

I think this movie did an absolutely AMAZING job and portraying a well rounded idea for educated and non educated people on the topic of Medical marijuana..WHICH IS ALL MARYJUANA ON ALL PEOPLE.. Considering an unmistakable amount of health benefits of Medical marijuana are for psycho-somatic DIS-EASES. Which I feel confident are the cause for over 95% of the most common dis-seases. Anyway Very Informative, But a the same time, Absolutely hilarious! Such a Creative and unique sense of humor! Very Quick styled. Intelligent jokes as well with a lot of Great speeches along the way by Wisely chosen interviewees. ( if thats a word)hahah.. (the people getting interviewed). Actually..im still kinda high..and well...This is the first time I've written a comment on any movie...And please understand the magnitude of that statement. I have over 700 gigs of movies and documentaries in storage space. 95% are docs. And THIS is the first movie that created the atmosphere along with some good white widow from Amsterdam for me to receive the intuition and create the motivation to Find the understanding and the potential benefits of WRITING A Comment FOR A MOVIE!!! HAHA Very long sentence. I paused the movie over 50 times to listen to jokes twice. Along with Writing down over 1000 words about names, statements, ideas, and understanding received directly from the heavens above and below. Anyway...GREAT MOVIE! ID WATCH IT AGAIN. WITH SOME CHOSEN INTELLECTUAL.......Smokers. haha..no..but seriously.. By the end of the movie...they well all be smokers. -PEACE AND LOVE- -- Joan Bello's --- "THE BENIFITS OF MARIJUANA: -physical, psychological and spiritual -"

Before saying anything about this movie let me say this. I do not smoke pot. I rented this movie thinking oh great, a funny stand-up doing material and thats what it was. A stand-up, who got all his stand-up friends to do little interviews about smoking pot. I gotta say, was laughing like crazy through most of it. But mixed in, was a lot of serious opinion and anger about government control of pot and clashes between state and federal laws. If you are looking for something truly scientific and credible, this isn't it. If you are looking for a good time and don't mind some opinions, I highly highly recommend this movie. Doug Benson is funny as are his friends who appear and even the studies are funny. Watch it, enjoy it, don't take it seriously!

A semi-spoof documentary of Super Size Me, which explores a similar premise to the McDonald's movie, but exchanges burgers with 'medical' marijuana. The lead of this movie is the no2 cannabis comedian in the country - Gary Cohan. He goes through before and after tests, describes his ordeal and does stand-up in the meantime. Only three things really stand out in this movie: - the short presentation of the situation of medical marijuana in California, where federal law is raping state law and DEA is closing down and arresting legal medical marijuana stores; - the interesting observation that marijuana seems to have improved psychic abilities :); - the fact that the stand-up comic is way funnier on marijuana than off it... Apart from that the movie is rather a bore and you really feel that it is too long and unnecessary. I'll give you one thing - its absurd that McDonald's is legal, while marijuana is forbidden.
