I’m sick of this movie being described by the press as a “stoner movie.” I’m Mr. Square and I loved this movie, saw it opening day (the theater was empty).
Call it what it is, neo-noir comedy. Some people might appreciate this cinematic masterpiece but would be turned away by the idea that it’s just another dumb comedy about pot-smokers. Only the main character smokes pot. It’s more of a bowling movie than a pot movie.
I’m pretty squaresville myself and I think it’s a great movie, although I didn’t realize it the first time I saw it.
