Spidersecu Don't Believe the Hype

StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

Siflutter It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

Skyler Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

davidrefaeli Maybe there's a reason why one of the slangs for weed is Chino (Chinese). The stoner face turns a bit Chinese like in character. The Chinese themselves were very much influenced by Taoism and Zen - which advocates attention to the "Suchness" of things as they are. And being stoned gives you this ability to look at the suchness of things. To look at every person you walk by as a story, as a suchness of its own. God - How did you miss all of this suchness before? Watching the show does the same. There's no main character. There is only the suchness of many different characters, all shine in their own uniqueness. The episodes, the music, the stories - are all about that. And you better wait for the ending credits of each episode, which are even more of an hallucination than everything else. I haven't watched this show stoned, though I seriously feel it already emulates the feeling pretty good for the viewer without the actual need for him to smoke. Though this is definitely a show that makes you wanna smoke - and I'm definitely going to have a 2nd round watching it once I pile up from my "Guy".

smatthew24 This show far exceeded my expectations. I came into it, not knowing about the web series. As an avid smoker, the premise was enough for me to give it a shot. By the end of the first episode I was hooked. The way they go episode to episode with new characters, and the depth of each story is just perfect. It's amazing, in a way. Each episode is different. Different characters, different background, colors, life choices .. yet .. I find myself connecting to each of them, and with this connection not only do I see them, but I also begin to see myself.

killer1h So to give you some background this show has been around 2 years before HBO had anything to do with it, and back then it was a pretty cool show about a collection of stories that a pot dealer had from just delivering his weed all around NYC. And the original show was awesome I honestly don't know why they canceled it the first go around but anyway to the HBO version. With this being on HBO you'd think that this show would be more to the point, but it isn't. For example the first episode started off pretty OK, and then it turned into something from Jerry Springer. Which I found kind of weird because as where once this was a show about a delivery guy with mostly the focus on what happens around him now it's anything but. And then it went into a whole segment about some gay guy losing his mind on meth which was completely out of left field. Bottom line the direction this show has started taking is not a great one, instead of focusing on the dealer and his stories they just kind of scattershot everyone else into it. 6/10 I'm hoping they were just trying something new with the first episode and it goes back to being a good show.Second Review: This show is now complete hipster garbage, Well done HBO, you've managed to take a great show and turn it into absolutely intolerable trash. 3/10, if you value time don't watch this thing, not even remotely worth it anymore.

swilliky The new HBO comedic drama focuses on different characters throughout each episode connected by a character known only as the guy who bikes around New York City and sells pot to various people. Each character has their own issues and reasons for encountering the guy played by Ben Sinclair. The show started out as a web series and has graduated to thirty-minute episodes that can encapsulate up to two different story lines that interweave in strange connections not always noticed in everyday life. Stories range from a young Muslim student to couples hosting an orgy to an entire episode from the point of view of a dog. The shows use the slice of life to explore issues of the human condition that are both humorous and emotional. The writers don't hold back on the awkwardness of being a weed dealer that interacts with all sorts of strange individuals that are either shut-in and antisocial or a bit too comfortable and overly social. The guy takes all this in stride with a relentlessly positive attitude.
