Product Description
The story of three not so bright men who come up with a series of crazy schemes to get a friend out of jail. Studio: Uni Dist Corp. (mca) Release Date: 02/05/2008 Run time: 83 minutes Rating: R
Amazon.com
Cannabis comedy doesn't get more juvenile than this pro-pot goof about three stoners who come to the rescue of a fourth buddy when he's arrested for feeding a lethal dose of junk food to a diabetic police horse. Kenny (Harland Williams) is sent to jail, and to rescue him from the almost inevitable trauma of homosexual rape (giving you some idea of this movie's level of humor), his buddies set out to raise his $100,000 bail by selling high-grade weed ripped off from a pharmaceutical research lab. That's about it for the plot; the rest of the movie's a parade of marijuana jokes and amusing pot-friendly cameos by the likes of Snoop Dog, Willie Nelson, and Janeane Garofalo. As two of the bong-hitting buddies, Jim Breuer (from Saturday Night Live) and comedian Dave Chappelle do their best to disguise the movie's lack of inspiration. But no matter how hard they try to milk laughs from the one-joke premise, they can't stop the movie's title from being an apt description of the movie itself. --Jeff Shannon

Funny Movie October 6, 2008
I got my movie as soon as it said I would. It was in new, perfect condition. It made a great present. It's a great funny movie.
This movie is the shiz-nittlebam snip-snap-sack! September 23, 2008

I'm not giving this movie a five star rating because it's a good movie in general. You'd have to be stoned to think it was a good movie. I mean, this movie was probably written in 2 hours, filmed in 2 days, on a budget of $500, most of which went to cheetos and orange fizzy drink. Ironically, that's probably what it takes to make a hilarious stoner movie, which is exactly what 'half-baked' is.
You probably have to be, or have been at one time, a weed smoker to fully comprehend why this movie is funny. I may or may not have indulged a little myself once, so I may or may not have found this movie absolutely laugh out loud hilarious. For the non weed-smokers, (myself included, of course) there's still plenty of funny non-drug related comedy to keep you (us) entertained. However, don't believe all of the stuff you see these guys doing when high. Pot does not make you (so I've been told) feel like you can fly around.
This film features some great physical comedy (You just have to see Dave's reaction when he picks up the Marijuana brick for the scientist) some oft repeated lines ('he had sex with my momma! Why?') and a host of cameos (Jon Stewart, Bob Saget, Willie Nelson, Stephen Balwin, to name a few). Half-Baked is a light-hearted piece of stoner theater that won't really offend anyone outside of the hardcore anti-drug crowd. The cheetos await...

 Get Lifted July 21, 2008
The first time I ever saw this film was about 3 or 4 years ago. I had heard many numerous references to this film, but never really got around to watching this film. One day, in the BX, I saw this and decided to pick it up. The movie itself is pretty good. It has a decent storyline and some pretty good cameo's to make it a notch above the current dime a dozen mainstream movie out there. (Meet the Spartans, The Comebacks, etc) My main gripe about this movie is it seemed too short and it went into the storyline rather quickly. If it were any other way though, it probably wouldn't be the movie it is now, and it would run the risk of being drawn out and over done. The storyline, as we all know, is about 4 people who live together, one works at a music store, one is a custodian, or a janitor... one works at a fast food joint, and one is a kindergarten teacher, which scares me because he's a weedhead and all, but he was doing the best out of all of them, AND the guy on the couch until he went to grab munchies, fed a horse, and not just ANY horse- he was an officer of the law! And ended up in prison. They raise money to bail Kenny out of jail, where Thurgood meets Mary Jane on one of their visits. Ultimately, They fall in love and he kicks the habit. Half Baked in a nutshell. This movie is memorable, and the characters and the lines from the movie are good, but not great. If you can remember the scenes and the lines and laugh along with the movie, cool. This movie is a little nostalgic for me and always brings me a laugh when I need it. So, when I need to get lifted, I look no further. Hope this review helps you.
