5.0 out of 5 stars I watched it warily..., November 14, 2008
I started watching this film with a whole lot of doubt and skepticism. I am by no means radical in any way, and until recently was also anti-legalization. John Holowach is a new filmmaker with a lot to say, and he does it without condescension, and with plenty of wry humor and wit. Some parts of the film pissed me off, and others made me very sad. It wasn't a boring, typical documentary by any means, and I highly recommend you check it out, if only because it's the first serious look at the War on Drugs that doesn't cop out to either extreme of the argument.

4.0 out of 5 stars Solid Film, but room for improvement, February 19, 2009
By T.N.T. (New England, USA) - See all my reviews
Has a lot of good facts and information but the arrangement does seem a bit biased towards pro-cannabis. I would of liked to see more anti-cannabis quotes, videos, etc. to help balance and show the outrageous "factor" of why cannabis is illegal. Overall it was a good film but seemed a little bit dated to me and I prefer the newer "The Union" documentary. The film comes off as a student's argument for the consequences of a current U.S. policy. I would of liked to see the inclusion of medical/scientific studies surrounding Cannabis.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Information, October 21, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This documentary was very informative but the narrator's voice drove me up a wall, very hard to listen to. Great otherwise.
