Up in Smoke

Two stoners unknowingly smuggle a van - made entirely of marijuana - from Mexico to L.A., with incompetent Sgt. Stedenko on their trail.

Details

Up in Smoke is a hilarious comedy from 1978 that follows the misadventures of two laid-back stoners, Pedro and Man, who accidentally become entangled in a wild drug smuggling escapade. The duo unknowingly find themselves in possession of a van completely made of marijuana and inadvertently smuggle it from Mexico to Los Angeles.

As Pedro and Man attempt to navigate their way through L.A., they soon find themselves being relentlessly pursued by Sgt. Stedenko, an inept law enforcement officer determined to bring them down. Along the way, they encounter a motley crew of characters, including a rock band and a quirky love interest named Donna.

Packed with uproarious gags and absurd situations, Up in Smoke is a cult classic that perfectly captures the spirit of the late 1970s counterculture and the escalating drug culture of the era. With its witty dialogue, outrageous antics, and a memorable soundtrack featuring songs by Cheech and Chong themselves, this film has become a beloved symbol of stoner cinema.

Directed by Lou Adler, Up in Smoke showcases the comedic talents of Cheech Marin and Tommy Chong, who play the loveable stoner heroes. This film serves as their big-screen debut as a comedy duo, and their undeniable chemistry and comedic timing make the movie an unforgettable experience.

For anyone looking for a riotous and offbeat comedy that is as absurd as it is entertaining, Up in Smoke is a must-watch that will leave viewers in stitches.
