This film eclipsed all the other films about the Drug War I have ever seen. The writing is exceptional, the editing is clean and compelling, the commentators are varied and respectable...
This film gripped me from the opening to closing frame! The historical perspectives it gives are mind blowing!
What a great documentary! I, and the friends who watched it with me, were blown away by how tight and interesting the documentary was.
This movie blew me away, and if the guys that made it are stoners it disproves all the stupid allegations that prohibitionists make about pot making you slow and stupid. Clearly not the case here, every angle gets covered here, and prohibition gets smoked!
As a pothead I've been waiting for this movie to come out for a long time wondering why no Kiwi film maker has bothered to tackle the elephant in the room! Kiwis have the highest rates of cannabis use IN THE WORLD and the highest arrest rates for cannabis use IN THE WORLD!
My friends who are pot heads recommended this film to explain why I shouldn't look down on their pot use when I drink alcohol and after seeing this documentary I have to admit I was wrong about a long of assumptions I had been making when it comes to drug use. I had no idea alcohol was so harmful.
Although I have no dog in this race, not being one who partakes in marijuana, I still have to say (as one who believes that dissension is the highest from of patriotism) that this film should be on every NZ TV channel instead as a general lesson to the sheeple of this country that they can stand up for themselves and stand up on issues of justice like these film makers do. Taking a position against the backward police and the political establishment is an act of heroism.
I loved this film. I thought I knew a lot about the subject, but this really opened my eyes.
Simply astonished by the way this film was put together! Great editing, solid camera work, excellent graphics, well-structured and highly entertaining from beginning to end.
