Editorial Review:
Grab your favorite munchies, kids. Red and Meth, that dope-addled dynamic duo, are going to Harvard! And while it's not an episode of Masterpiece Theatre, How High is destined to become a guilty pleasure of the cannabis crowd. The plot's a familiar one--take the basic selling points of any Cheech & Chong movie (a pair of shambolic protagonists who smoke lots of weed while slinging slang and driving funky, '70s-style cars), graft them onto a generic "raising hell on campus" teen movie scenario, and shake vigorously. The result is a prosaic effort that does contain some all-too-brief moments of genuine humor. Red and Meth, a.k.a. Redman and Method Man, may look like the world's oldest freshmen, but both offer genial performances, especially Method Man, who imbues the character of Silas with a dog-eared gentleness that raises him above the film's leaden script and plasticine directing. --Rebecca Levine

Rating:  - So bad... it is Good.
Don't expect much, and you won't be disappointed. Stupid plot, even stupider moral message. Offensive, over-the-top... but very funny if you are in the right mood.
Rating: - Racism Ruins Everything
I saw this film for the first time last night. Two of my friends insisted it was very funny and I needed to see it, so I did. The beginning of the movie showed promise, and I expected it to be something in the vein of Half-Baked. It wasn't. Except for a couple laughable moments, How High is nothing but an incredibly racist piece of trash. I am white and found the movie endlessly offensive. I'm disappointed that my friends (also white) enjoyed it at all.

Rating: - How Low
Dont get it confused. I love Redman and Method Man. I think Blackout was the best rap collaboration album ever made but this movie sucks monkey balls! Their Beavis and Butthead style of humor is not funny its just sad. The only scenes that are funny involve the guy pimpslapping people with baby powder on his palms. The rest of the movie is minstrel theater at its unforgiving worst. The lowest point in the film is where they dig up a dead guy, grind up his body in a blender and have somebody drink it for ...
