What a waste of my time!!!

Am I Missing Something?

Absolutely brilliant

I saw this movie before reading any reviews, and I thought it was very funny. I was very surprised to see the overwhelmingly negative reviews this film received from critics.

I have to admit, that I was more than pleasantly surprised while I was watching this movie. First of all this is meant to be funny and it is (unlike a horror movie A. Brody did with Mr. Argento, that was just funny, because it was bad). Apart from that, there are some very fine (weird) moments in this. One involves a frog and a word. That's all I'm going to say. It's really silly, but it made me laugh. A couple of times and I wasn't under the influence or anything. I just think it is genuinely funny.As is the cast overall. While Brody has not a major part in this, there are a few other known actors in this movie. Which might explain why IMDb has a budget estimate that is beyond 10 million Dollar. It didn't perform well in cinemas, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't give it a try. You might enjoy it ... and I'm still talking about the movie of course

I think the movie 'HIGH school' is an amazing movie! I think it is a very funny movie with an amazing story line! It has a great description of what is going on, therefore it is easy to follow and does not lose your attention. It is also easy to understand, even if you do not understand the drug culture. I have heard bad things about this movie, but in my opinion it is amazing in every way! There is nothing about this movie that i think is not worth watching! If i had to choose a favourite movie, HIGH school would be it! Welldone and thank you to all the writers, actors and producers of the movie 'HIGH school'! I will and do recommend this movie.

It's not just the film's stoner antics, but the wonderfully natural dynamic between protagonists Henry and Travis (Matt Bush and Sean Marquette) that make this film such a delight! At it's heart, that's what HIGH School seems to be about: two very different guys finding friends in each other in the midst of a sticky situation.Many equally memorable moments are offered thanks to the expert talents of Michael Chiklis and Adrien Brody. Chiklis (as pompous Dr. Leslie Gordon) exudes a deliciously-villainous disdain throughout the film. His inflated sense of righteousness, and Shakespearean presence, make him a truly love-to-hate personality. As Psycho Ed, Adrien Brody is just so damn fun to watch! One moment his crazed behavior had me in a laughing fit; next, his insane anger had me scared for Henry and Travis' safety. Dr. Gordon and Ed are uniquely accomplished performances that add so much to HIGH School's entertainment value!I hope you'll believe me when I say this film is so much more than a "stoner comedy". I LOVED it, and have extremely limited experience with other films of that genre. HIGH School made me laugh, made me think...I hope it does the same for you!

Normally I am not keen on the 'stoner comedies', as I have seen a good share and most of them have been pretty boring, lacking comedy and basically not really been worth watching. But the cast list credited to this movie made me sit down and give it a chance.And "High School" really surprised me as it turned out to be the best of all the 'stoner comedies' I have ever suffered through.The story is about Henry (played by Matt Bush) who is a student with great grades and about to makes it to MIT, but in a moment of weakness he tried smoking weed with his childhood friend Travis (played by Sean Marquette). Unfortunately the high school they are attending implements mandatory drug testing for the following day, in lieu of a former spell bee champion from the school making headline news from being high on drugs during the competition. Coming up with a clever plan, the two friends decide to drug the entire school, to make everyone fail the drug tests, and end up stealing drugs from Psycho Ed (played by Adrien Brody). The following day becomes a chaotic race against time, as principal Leslie Gordon (played by Michael Chiklis) is piecing together what is really going on.I will say that the story was cleverly thought through, and it had some nice moments. Sadly, though, this is not the type of comedy that will have you laughing hard throughout the entire movie. I laughed only a couple of times. But it is the type of comedy that is fun to watch and entertaining.As for the cast list, the reason why I decided to watch this movie, well I must applaud Adrien Brody for his performance in this movie. He played the role of Psycho Ed so well, and it was a sheer joy to watch him in this movie. But also hats off for Michael Chiklis for his portrayal of the oddly behaving principal. It was very surreal to see these two in a movie like this and have roles like this. But they did a tremendous job, and they really carried the movie.If you enjoy the 'stoner comedy' genre, then you definitely have to treat yourself to this movie, because it is really great.And with that, I will leave you with a great quote from principal Leslie Gordon: "If a picture is worth a thousand words, then this footage should be worth a thousand pictures. Which would equal a million... words."
