Movie- High School

I just saw this movie about a week ago with my boyfriend, and I would have to say it's a stupid comedy movie. I did laugh, but I also couldn't believe that I was actually watching it. It's more of a guy type of movie, and a stoner or ex-stoner movie. They can relate more with the feelings.
This movie takes place in a medium sized town high school. The day before Matt Bush, who plays Henry Burke is about to be elected valedictorian he takes a hit of chronic for the first time in his life. His principal, Micheal Chiklis, decided to make the whole school, including faculty to take a drug test, whoever doesn't pass this test is immediately expelled. Henry can either take the test tomorrow and lose his scholarship and everything he had going for him, or he can team up with Sean Marquette, who plays as his stoner friend, Breaux to do anything to get these drugs out of his system. They decide to steal a high powered ganja, who is a law student that turned into a drug dealer, Psycho Ed, who is played by Adrien Brody, and spike the school's bake sale brownies. They end up getting the whole school and faculty stoned out of their minds. The higher, and higher that everybody is getting, the more Psycho Ed is getting angry at them for stealing his stash of ganja. They must find out a way to give back what they stole, and make sure their whole plan doesn't get destroyed.
The actress and actresses did a good job acting in this movie I thought. It's pretty hard to act stoned out your mind and make your eyes and things look like it. Psycho Ed and his friends were really good with their acting, but I don't think the principal was a very good actor. He looked more like a funny guy than trying to stern and crack down on people with his serious face, but he still had a certain smile to it. Everyone else in the movie, I thought did a pretty good job at acting high. Their cries weren't fake, and the things that it showed they saw, they were really good at imaging that that is really what they saw.
I pretty much liked the whole movie. Every part of it was humorous, but the serious parts of the movie was also good. The time where they were stealing the ganja from the drug dealer, it was my favorite part because it was suppose to be so serious, but it was also pretty funny.
The main purpose of this movie, does not have any morals really to this storyline. There's nothing really to learn from it because they got high, did their plan, paid the money back, and everything turned out okay.
I think everyone will like this movie. All groups of people would. I don't think older parents would like it because they don't want their kids to try it out. But it would always make everyone laugh and maybe even bring back old memories. This is a rated R movie. I would give it *** stars.
