SMILEY FACE SHOULD BE TURNED UPSIDE DOWNIf you can't say something nice...
Since the emergence of Sean Penn as Jeff Spicoli from Fast Times at Ridgemont High (including, lesser known actors such as Eric Stolz, Anthony Edwards and Nick Cage) came a new kind of character; the surfer/stoner dude. Other movies have tried to match the "dude-ness" and some came close. The gimmick in this movie is that the girl, Jane (Anna Faris), who is a "pot head" already, accidentally eats her roomie's cupcakes, which are laced with marijuana. The rest of the film is her wacky and crazy adventures. It just doesn't work... AT ALL. Even with a decent cast, there is nothing funny about this film. There are stoner women (not girls) who smoke weed (Mary Louise Parker, HBO Weeds) but no girl/young woman counterpart that come close. Faris can not hold a whole movie on her own. John Krasinski (Jim from the Office) was good to watch, but he could have been given a bigger bite of these cupcakes. Some bits work, but there aren't enough of them to save this crap. Some called it a cult classic. Let the cult have it.
NOT a pick unless you're too stoned to care. Worthless and unfunny.
