Load of rubbish!!
Awesome Movie
A very feeble attempt at affirmatie action
It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
View MoreThe preview for this movie was far superior to the actual movie. I am a huge fan of Russell Peters and Faizon Love but after 20 minutes of "Ripped", I was ready to for the movie to end.As expected, the film spews dribble in the form of malicious stereotypes (i.e. potheads are dumb, have no real ambition, and so on). The film doesn't just push stereotypes on the audience, it obnoxiously smothers them with it.This movie felt like a first draft submitted by a middle school paint- huffer that just discovered weed and the movie: Friday. The best thing about this movie is probably the soundtrack.There isn't enough weed available to forget this tragedy.
View MoreThis was a pretty funny movie to watch! Your average stoner comedy with a good happy feel to it... totally worth it! It's funny to think how much time has changed and what it would be like to skip the regression of technology. it's been driving me crazy trying to find the song that played in the credits! It's amazing and I really wanna know what it is...any help would be much appreciated :)
View MoreRussel Peters is a great comedian and i have followed him for a long time, but this movie really does not portrait he real talent. This story is plain obvious and predictable, the acting does not help the movie any better feels like the whole movie was taken in one shot on an Iphone.
View MoreIt will take you all of five minutes to know what sort of ride your in for with this one. Russell Peters is pretty funny as a stand up comedian and actually he's a pretty decent actor. Paired here with Faizon Love it isn't the greatest combination of on screen presence but that's noting compared to the ridiculous story line, silly frat-boy humour and paper thin plot your left to deal with. The rest of the cast is very able and given what they have to work with do a stellar job.I had to seriously wonder 'what were they thinking'... repeatedly! as I watched the scenes unfold. I think the writer and producer were probably high when they came up with this notion, and rolled the whole thing over in a couple of weeks for all the development that seems to have gone into it. I actually think this could have been a pretty good (if silly) movie with a bit more care, attention, planning, production, writing... the list goes on, but hey, it is it what it is.Given the above, you probably think I hated it, but I didn't. I liked it. OK there were only a few laugh out loud moments, and some of the toilet humour will make you cringe (if most of the other stuff doesn't) but I still had no problem watching it to the end even as I knew I was being duped in doing so. Truthfully I can't recommend it. It rubbish and I doubt many will disagree, I even question my sown sanity if giving it this score, but...
