STORYLINE
Up in Smoke (1978) is a stoner comedy that follows the misadventures of Cheech and Chong, two lovable slackers who accidentally become involved in a series of wild and hilarious escapades. After meeting on the road, the duo sets out on a quest to score some marijuana, leading them to a series of absurd and comedic situations. Along the way, they inadvertently smuggle a van made entirely of marijuana from Mexico to Los Angeles, all while being pursued by inept narcotics agents. The film is a riotous journey filled with classic one-liners, slapstick humor, and the quintessential stoner culture of the 1970s.
