Cheech & Chong's Next Movie Audience Reviews

Micitype Pretty Good
Lawbolisted Powerful
Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!
Robert Joyner The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
Drew To begin with I usually give out a basic outline of the plot, but on this occasion what occurs is pure incoherent madness switching back and forth without much of a purpose. Nonetheless I'll give it a shot. Cheech and Chong are now sharing accommodation in a condemned building, while their next door neighbor constantly tells them what he thinks of them. While, Chong is lazing about, Cheech has got himself a job and also a girlfriend. But the former one doesn't last for too long, but he picks up a chick at the welfare office where he invites her over for the night. So, Cheech kicks Chong out of the house to have some fun with his cousin Red who's in town. While, Chong and Red are out having a great time; Chong is left waiting for his girl. *Hmm* that was easier than I thought… I guess that's it, well a basic rundown at least. This is Their follow up to "Up In Smoke" another classic stoner movie. if you want to relax and laugh you but off put this in the DVD player totally worth having in your collection. I've watched it at lease 420 times lol see what i did there. if you are a Stoner you will love this movie like another Cheech & Chong movie its totally worth watching and getting for your collection.
gavin6942 The two stoners (Cheech Marin and Tommy Chong) and their friends go through another series of crazy, drug-influenced misadventures.Almost everyone agrees that this second Cheech and Chong film is not as good as the first ("Up In Smoke"). I would have to agree with them. Whereas the first film had so many memorable and classic moments, this one just does not have that level of impact. Still fun and funny, but not the cultural milestone of the first film.Where this film excels is in the casting of Paul Reubens, Phil Hartman, Elvira, Edie McClurg and the Groundlings. And, before the Pee-Wee Herman movie did it, the use of the song "Tequila". Seeing the Groundlings together in one film before many (most?) of them broke into the big time is a special treat.
airguitarplayer Cheech and Chong are back but this time as themselves not as Pedro DePacas and Man. Paul Ruebens a.k.a. Pee Wee Herman also stars in this film. Cheech also plays his redheaded wild eyed loud and noisy Cousin Red who takes Chong a really wild night through Downtown Los Angeles. Cheech and Chong gave it there best shot with this film but did not hit hit the bullseye. If you look at the neighborhood that Cheech and Chong live in during the day shots you will notice that it is none other than the Universal Studios backlot. The house they live in is the house from Black and White movie classic "To Kill a Mockingbird". Paul Ruebens plays a stuckup snobby Hotel Clerk who at night becomes comedian Pee Wee Herman. The big bag of weed storyline got changed for Comedy Central tv and the new storyline is a big bag of diamonds that aliens come to Earth for, therefore figuring in the U.F.O. scenario at the end of the movie in the Marijuana field. Look for a small appearance by black comedian Michael Winslow before he starred in those Police Academy movies. His sound effects routine in the Welfare Office keeps this movie laughable. Anyway thats about all I can say about Next Movie except that it could have been better if C&C stuck with Pedro and Man.
Diss Hey, I grew up on Cheech and Chong films. Yet amazingly I'm not a potsmoker today. This is probably the second best of the lot, closely following "up in smoke".If you don't like Cheech Marin or Tommy Chong, this movie probably isn't for you. Although Cheech's recent work doesn't resemble his work with Chong. If you like Tommy Chong in that 70's show, you will most likely like this movie. And if you have any interest in Paul Reubins in his pre-pee wee herman years, this is the movie for you.The story isn't much, but it has a semblance of a story to keep things moving fairly smoothly- unlike some other Cheech and Chong films. The gags and jokes work very well for the times, and hold up fairly well over time. This movie is less a variety show than later Cheech and Chong films. Although there are a couple sequences that don't seem to fit very well with the movie.This movie is a must see for any fan of the drug culture. And most fans of that 70's show will probably like this movie.Go watch this movie and Up in Smoke now!!. You can skip other Cheech and Chong titles
