Leave your thoughts about How High.
| Q Network Film DeskJames KendrickSilly, sloppy, and liberated from any sense of pacing or plot |
| One Guy's OpinionFrank SwietekIts unremitting coarseness and utterly amoral attitude will be excruciating for most viewers to sit through. |
| Planet Sick-BoyJon PopickThe idea sucks on paper, and it doesn't get any better when it's on the screen. |
| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzThe overlong, messy and chaotic film is not funny and has no social redeeming value. |
| Los Angeles TimesKevin ThomasThere's a spirit of generosity to How High that allows many performers to shine beyond its sharp and amiable stars. |
| Entertainment WeeklyLisa SchwarzbaumEnough cheery mockery to amuse even non-tokers. |
| USA TodayMike ClarkEnough low-grade laughs to entertain significantly more than some of the more prestigious year-end releases. |
| Chicago TribuneRobert K. ElderLike Ice Cube's "Friday," How High probably will survive as an underground classic, until it's pushed further underground and forgotten by the next disposable "cult classic" to hit video. |
| Charlotte ObserverLawrence ToppmanThe Observer won't let me get stoned before a review, so I'll never know what How High would be like after a big fat blunt. Without one, it's sloppy, broadly funny in spots and chaotic. |
| Kansas City StarRobert W. ButlerEither you find this stuff funny or you don't. I don't. |
