Editorial Reviews

From the Back Cover

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 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.

4.0 out of 5 stars Has The Best Movie Scene Ever, February 25, 2005

This review is from: Cheech & Chong's Next Movie (DVD)

It's a shame that a film like this will be mostly dismissed by a society that will see this as nothing more than a "stoner" film. While admittedly the humor often contains drug references, there are several scenes that I think anybody could enjoy and have a good laugh at.

While I agree with many reviewers here as to what are some of the funnier scenes, the two that really do it for me is the one in the Welfare Office. This is just physical comedy at its very best. While Chong waits for Cheech to "visit" with his lady friend, he is seated next to an old man, and a very odd character played by Michael Winslow (and it is very apparent what a brilliant comic he is, and it's too bad his talents went to waste in countless Police Academy sequels). I cannot even begin to describe this scene, but those who have seen the movie know what I am talking about. Those who haven't need to do themselves a favor and watch the movie, if only for this scene alone. Even the look on Chong's face is authentic--he's not acting here--he is equally confused and entertained by what's happening around him.

Shortly after this scene comes another great one, where Cheech performs his song, a warm and loving (and hilarious) tribute to Mexican Americans. It has been days since I watched this and I still have that song in my head.

I would highly (no pun intended) recommend this film to anybody that needs a great laugh and is not easily offended by drug and sex jokes.

4.0 out of 5 stars laughoutloud, August 23, 2004

(REAL NAME)   

This review is from: Cheech & Chong's Next Movie (DVD)

Nostalgia for my childhood recently caused me to buy and watch the Cheech and Chong movies (with the exception of The Coriscan Brothers). Aside from realizing I shouldn't have been watching those movies in my pre-teen days, I realized how well done they are. Most amazing to me was that they held up one after the other, feeling not repetitive, though each of them is rather episodic. Most impressive was Chong's direction; he makes a number of interesting choices that elevate him beyond the status of writer/star who has enough power to direct; clearly, he took this role quite seriously. The movies, of course, are not serious. I rarely laugh out loud in movies these days, but I did at least a half dozen times in each of these. The characters are not only given funny situations in which to work and funny lines to deliver, but each of them is presented with a kind of earnestness that makes them likeable, and the films all he more watchable.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great movie..."but"...., March 19, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Cheech & Chong's Next Movie (DVD)

Great movie...but...would be a better DVD if it had both versions. The version (not included) in questions is the heavy censor TV version. Instead of "weed" they are carrying "diamonds". That version has a better soundtrack as well. Also, cartoons, and more UFO scenes. Usually censorship makes for a bad movie, but in this case it makes for a totally stupid, great, awesome movie. It just proves how far censors would go in the 1980's. Universal should release a disc with both "classic" versions. Oh, and Edie McClurg is great in this one! Welcome cone to "The Next Movie" yall cmon in...rockin soundtrack!
