Get Out of My Room Audience Reviews

RyothChatty ridiculous rating
Abbigail Bush what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
Neive Bellamy Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
Keeley Coleman The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
Michael_Elliott Get Out of My Room (1985) ** (out of 4) Fair mockumentary from Cheech Marin has him directing and co-starring with Tommy Chong as they play themselves being followed by a "reporter" doing a story on their new album. We see interviews with them, interviews with fans and there's also four music videos. GET OUT OF MY ROOM really isn't a good or entertaining picture and I think for the most part it's mainly going to appeal to C&C fans who have to see everything the duo did. With that said, it's certainly far from a "bad" movie but at the same time the duo simply has so many better pictures to watch over this one. I think the highlight of the film is the video for "Born in East L.A.," which is obviously a take off on Bruce Springsteen's "Born in the U.S.A.." I think fans of C&C as well as Springsteen will get a kick out of the video as it spoofs the city and Marin growing up there. The weakest aspect of the film are actually the fake interviews with Cheech and Chong as they simply aren't that funny and in fact they're not nearly as entertaining as some of the questions aimed at the fans.
gavin6942 A mock documentary filmed mostly in and around Los Angeles with interviews of Cheech and Chong interspersed between four videos of songs from their last album. Songs include: "Get Outta My Room" and "Born in East LA".I liked Cheech being British, did not like that this was their last movie together... and overall felt this was a bit weak. Some of the segments were funny and the songs are alright, but it never really came together as a coherent story and was more like a way to just fill an hour.Maybe I am expecting too much from these guys, but I would have liked to see more of a full movie with just the songs incorporated into the plot or something along those lines...
blackghost-1 Though not the best C&C film, certainly ranks up there with "Up In Smoke" and my personal favorite "Next Movie". The whole "Ian Rotten" bit in the first part is absolutely hysterical; the irony for "I'm Not Home Right Now" is great, and my favorite part, "Born In East L.A." is a great end to this hilarious mockumentary. The funniest bits come from in between the videos. The scene where the guy is trying to "expose" Cheech and Chong is absolutely hilarious. It's been a while since I watched this bit all the way through, but I recently acquired this hard to find classic and viewed a good portion of it. As I said, though it may not be the best of the Cheech and Chong series, it is certainly worth checking out.
MisterWhiplash Cheech and Chong's Get Out of My Room is the last thing the duo wrote, directed, produced and composed together (not acted though, they have teamed up in After Hours, Ferngully, Far Out Man, an episode of Nash Bridges and a very memorable and funny episode of South Park). And while this is the type of film that might let down those C & C fans that always toke up before the film (to say this critic does that would be incriminating, but just to save face I'll just say I know where you C & C fans are coming from), it is still funny. Sure not as funny as the triumphs Things Are Tough All Over, Nice Dreams, the uncompromising Up in Smoke and even the very worthy effort Next Movie, but it is still a trying and satirical approach to music videos that accomplishes it's task for all those about to watch. Really big flaw is that it is a set-up to be made fun (actually, Beavis and Butt-head did that already). Various stars make cameos in Spinal Tap style documentary between videos; Born In East L.A. is the definitive brainchild of Cheech. B
