...Frequently amusing....Dylan maintains a consistent level of a swaggering, semi-anarchic silliness...

...If you like stoner comedies and Cheech & Chong, HOW HIGH will feel like home....Method Man and Redman lend a certain charm to this film....The pair exudes humor...

Rating: 1/5 -- The jokes aren't funny, the characters aren't fully developed and poor editing only makes a humorless story confusing. Full Review

...Enough cheery mockery to amuse even non-tokers...

Rating: 3/4 -- Not all the gags work, not all the gross-outs serve the greater good, but How High is funny, quick, and the very definition of a pleasant surprise. Full Review

Rating: 0/4 -- Sinfully tasteless cinema was everywhere in 2001 - but this movie is so bad it's Freudian.

Product Description:

HOW HIGH is a raucous comedy about two underachieving potheads from the projects, Cyrus and Jamal (rappers Method Man and Redman), who, through bizarre circumstances, end up attending Harvard University. It all begins when Cyrus' friend Ivory dies, and Cyrus uses his ashes as fertilizer to grow marijuana. When the two are taking their college entrance exams, Jamal explains his philosophy: Study high. Take the test high. Get high scores. Smoking Cyrus' magical weed somehow summons the ghost of the brainy Ivory, who gives them all the answers to the exam. They are recruited by Chancellor Huntley (Fred Willard) to attend Harvard, where they use the weed to continue their academic success, but thanks to the machinations of the uptight Dean Cain (Obba Babatunde), they soon find themselves without Ivory's help, and are forced to maintain their scholarship grades on their own. The plot reaches its peak of comic ludicrousness when the hapless duo attempts to dig up and smoke the remains of John Quincy Adams. HOW HIGH features Mike Epps, Tracy Morgan, and Spalding Gray in supporting roles. The film is scabrously funny and refreshingly free of logic, reason, and political correctness.
