Storyline
Meet Dave Bertman, a tightly wound 37 year-old father of one. Bertman's "higher" education begins when medical marijuana activists wielding "loaded" weapons interrupt a planned reunion barbecue with college debate chums. When his teenage daughter Gina Marie unexpectedly arrives with a joint found in her pocket, Bertman assumes the worst. Only after he faces his own hypocrisies, can he have the open and honest discussion needed for father and daughter to understand each other and reconnect. Meanwhile, Bertman's fellow debaters shed their inhibitions and make their own self-discoveries. Tired of seeing her grass-roots campaigns sabotaged by corporations opposing legalization, pro-pot advocate, Dr. Willa Peterson decides the kid gloves are coming off. By convincing the Fun-0nion snack food empire their sales would skyrocket if marijuana was legal, Peterson enlists their corporate might to back her cause. It will take a radical marketing campaign to change the way America thinks about ... Written by

THE BAD: The entire thing is shot terribly. The director, cinematographer, and some of the actors completely dropped the ball. Some of the skits/commercials they threw in it were really, really dumb. I feel this movie might have set the legalization movement back about 5 years.
THE GOOD: The actors that weren't porn quality were actually pretty good. Mixed in with the stupid stuff were some really funny jokes, and I liked the comics they cut in too (one comic has really hack material though). The marketing guy is brilliant.
I would recommend this movie to anyone that knows about marijuana and is pro legalization. Anyone else will probably not get that much out of it and leave the movie prejudiced against the issue.
