Description

Struggling David (Luke Wilson) has big plans for his life - except he can't exactly remember what they are. When slinky, sassy Serena (Alicia Witt) waltzes into his life, things take a definite turn for the better - until his house burns down and she bolts to New York with a wannabe rock star (Jamie Kennedy). While Serena frolics back East, David gets by with a little help from his friends - like a singing farmer (Jack Black) and an oversexed rich girl (Brittany Murphy). If Serena ever returns, someone's gonna get a rude awakening, as this raucous comedy hurtles toward an outrageous and unexpected finish!

BONG WATER STINKS! 1 1/2 STARS - Reviewed on 2008-06-15

9 customers found this review helpful, 2 did not.

Jack Black, Andy Dick and Co. do what they can in this pointless and goofy movie. As stoner films go this one just doesn't have many laughs or story for that matter. If you like stoner films, stick to the early Cheech & Chong films. Andy Dick made me laugh a few times, but that's about it. Black has a small role, but he makes his presence known as usual.

I don't get all the 4 and 5-star reviews for this movie. I watched it during a free preview weekend, and I suppose I got my money's worth. I like stoner movies as much as the next person, but this one isn't even in the same league as a Cheech and Chong movie or Half-Baked. It was not funny, and didn't really go anywhere - and what the hell was with the ending?

Jack Black was somewhat funny in his small role, but I didn't even chuckle until the last 10 minutes. The funniest part was the series of answering machine messages that played during the credits (which I missed part of due to annoying movie channel voiceover ads). Maybe one has to be stoned to find this movie funny. However, a good movie will be funny regardless of the number of tokes taken while watching it (watch The Big Lebowski for a good example).

I have to agree with the reviewer who said the movie's title was apt because the bongwater is the unwanted leftover. There are much better pot-themed movies out there.
FUNNY movie - Reviewed on 2008-04-01

GREAT pot-head, laugh fest movie. I thought my luck was bad until I saw this guy! Jack Black makes a small but FUNNY appearance as a trippin' farmer. A must have for any Cheech & Chong collector!

Does anyone know the soundtrack listing for this movie? The last song is great!
CRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAP!!!! - Reviewed on 2008-01-28

This movie was nothing but rubbish - it went absolutely nowhere. It wasn't even funny - I hardly got a chuckle at most.

I agree with everything the other people have said that have given this movie a 1-star rating.

DO NOT make the same mistake as me and buy this DVD - rent it first if you REALLY want to waste 2 hours of your time...
