Editorial Reviews

Cheech and Chong's Next Movie The zany twosome are back for some smoke-enhanced misadventures in this riotous comedy. This time, Cheech must deal with an angry neighbor and losing his job, all while trying to score with a sexy young lady. Meanwhile, Chong meets Cheech's cousin, Red (Cheech Marin in a dual role), and the two new buds have a wild time buzzing around Hollyweird in a bad Ferrari. Along the way, the dynamic duo find time for some mishaps at a movie set, the welfare office, a hotel, a brothel, a music store, a rich girl's house, a comedy club, the ultimate weed field and a UFO - all before the second reel! It's an outrageous comedy that you and your friends will be toking about for a long time to come. Born in East L.A. Cheech Marin writes, directs and stars in Born in East L.A., a hip, outrageous comedy that's based on his best-selling record parody. The story follows Rudy (Marin), an American of Hispanic descent, whose south-of-the-border looks show him no mercy during an immigration raid in a migrant worker factory. As his luck goes, he is caught with neither money nor his ID and is deported to Mexico - without speaking a word of Spanish! Unable to contact his vacationing family or his newly immigrated cousin (played by comedian Paul Rodriguez), Rudy is in for a crazy ride as he tries every legal - and illegal - scheme he can think of to get back home to the States. He finds himself in jail, in love, and practically in-sane! Trouble follows him everywhere as he runs from la migra in this case of mistaken - or rather misplaced - identity.

This review is from: Cheech and Chong's Next Movie / Born in East L.A. Double Feature (DVD)

I bought this DVD because it was a double feature. Born in east L.A. is a classic, it is about a mexican-american who wrongfully gets deported to Tijuana, Mexico during an immigration raid. While being in Tijuana, Mexico our featured character Rudy Guadalupe Robles(CHEECH MARIN) learns a lot about his mexican heritage. Rudy struggles in Tijuana because he does not speak spanish. He later meets a caucasian club owner named Jimmy (Daniel Stern) and Jimmy gives Rudy a job that pays slave wages. Rudy needs that job in order to be able to cross the border back into America.

"Cheech and Chongs next movie" is about two pot heads that are on a mission: to retrieve a special suitcase. Cheech has a cousin named Red who is coming into L.A. and has a suitcase full of marijuana. Cheech sends his dumb friend Chong to meet his cousin Red. While in L.A. Red decides to stay at a hotel but is unable to pay the bill. The receptionist Paul Reubens (a.k.a. PEE WEE HERMAN) decides to keep Reds suitcase until the bill is paid. Since Red doesn't have the money to pay the hotel bill PEE WEE decides to call the COPS, and the rest is hilarious.

This review is from: Cheech and Chong's Next Movie / Born in East L.A. Double Feature (DVD)

Nice Dreams is a classic flick, beyond the blockbuster Up in Smoke.Yes Pee Wee Herman is great, and Cheech, even though he gave Tommy Chong a putdown (speaking about his role in the cop show Nash Bridges, "It's nice to do something without a joint in it."), should appreciate that Tommy C put him on the map. As for Nice Dreams, it's a laugh a minute, hilarious, and a little bit deep if one listens to Tommy Chong's dialog closely. I can't help being horrified that Attorney General Ashcroft could put this guy in prison for selling glassware (i.e., water pipes) over the internet!!!!!!!!!
