Häufig von anderen gelesen

Doug Benson is not only the main actor here, but also a test subject, narrator and comedian all in one. The documentary lives entirely from his personality. He doesn’t take himself too seriously, but remains likeable. That’s what makes the movie so entertaining.

Benson is a stand-up professional with a long history of cannabis activism. He is present throughout the film – sometimes funny, sometimes tired, sometimes honestly overwhelmed. His observations on the subject are simple but to the point. Without him, there would be no movie.
