User Reviews

   (Review this title)
it's a good life, 13 July 2011
Author: Lee Eisenberg (eisenberg.lee@gmail.com) from Portland, Oregon, USA

The second movie featuring the stoner duo has them continue their goofy adventures. There are gags with pee, songs, and even a brothel. "Cheech & Chong's Next Movie" is one cool litany of silliness! I understand that a heavily edited version appears on TV; like hell I'll watch an edited version of Cheech & Chong. I want to see those guys do what they're known for, and so I've only seen the full movie. A really funny one.

Along with the main stars, the movie also has Evelyn Guerrero, Edie McClurg, Paul Reubens (as Pee-Wee Herman for the very first time) and Cassandra Peterson (sorry, not as Elvira).

Yes, it's very much a period piece, but how can you not die laughing at what C&C do?
