He informs the viewer that it is near mandatory to watch this film while under the influence of marijuana, suggesting a parallel between seeing it uninebriated and watching a 3D film without the glasses. The viewer is immediately greeted by a talking, time-traveling CGI joint from 1996, possibly once a banana on a stock model website, recolored white and given eyes and a mouth. Andy Milonakis also makes a cameo appearance as a wheelchair bound, fart sucking cripple, proving that it is actually physically possible for a human being to sink lower than rock bottom. Starring in the film are rappers Snoop Dogg and Wiz Khalifa, Snoop Dogg playing himself, but essentially as a creepy 35 year old man still in high school, and Wiz Khalifa playing as a "stuck-up" nerd, suspiciously wearing a long sleeved, button down shirt for most of the film to hide his tattoos. You'd also think that a film made by musicians wouldn't contain at least 7 royalty-free midi sound files populating the supposed "soundtrack", but it simply serves as testament to how absolutely little anybody working on this project gave a f***. Never before have I seen a collective group of human beings manage to take nearly half a million dollars and somehow transform that into some of the worst 75 minutes in cinematic history, looking cheaper and more amateur than many budgetless shorts I've seen on youtube.
MAC AND DEVIN GO TO HIGH SCHOOL ACTORS MAC
Mac & Devin go to High School is a truly remarkable human achievement. Note: Not that it genuinely matters, but the follow contains spoilers for the entire film. I could care less if Mac & Devin don't graduate (or for that matter DIE). But good stoner comedies have good characters that you like and care for.
MAC AND DEVIN GO TO HIGH SCHOOL ACTORS MOVIE
Which is sad because this is a movie that I've been anticipating as a fan of Wiz and Snoop, and a fan of stoner comedies. I could go in depth about how bad the acting was or how flat the jokes fell, but I'm not trying to write a book.
When you make a movie specifically to sell something or some things ("Jack and Jill") it will usually not turn out well. Now I could be wrong about this, but, while watching, it seemed that the overall point of the movie was to sell music. When put into the right hands, this plot could possibly become effective, but usually this is not the case. This story has been reused 1000 times over. A cool kid helps a nerdy kid become cool. The next issue came when I began to uncover what the overall plot was. But relying on the intoxication of your audience for a films enjoyment is pathetic. Now, it's no lie that weed makes some terrible movies more enjoyable. Slow Burn then proceeds to tell us that we have to get high to enjoy this movie. Slow Burn delivers some of the dumbest and unfunny dialogue I've ever heard. A poorly animated cartoon joint that, really, looks like a white banana. The first problem is at the beginning of the movie, when we're introduced to "Slow Burn". But unfortunately (in my opinion) this is one of the worst movies I have ever seen. So when I heard that they were collaborating to make a stoner comedy I was excited. I could care less if Mac & Devin don't graduate (or for that matter DIE).I am a fan of both Snoop Dogg and Wiz Khalifa.
