gavin6942 A mock documentary filmed mostly in and around Los Angeles with interviews of Cheech and Chong interspersed between four videos of songs from their last album. Songs include: "Get Outta My Room" and "Born in East LA".I liked Cheech being British, did not like that this was their last movie together... and overall felt this was a bit weak. Some of the segments were funny and the songs are alright, but it never really came together as a coherent story and was more like a way to just fill an hour.Maybe I am expecting too much from these guys, but I would have liked to see more of a full movie with just the songs incorporated into the plot or something along those lines...

Joseph P. Ulibas Get Out of my Room (1985) was a video version of their last album together. This production was Cheech's first directorial job and sadly for fans the last time they would be working together as a cohesive unit. The video BORN IN EAST L.A. would launch Cheech's career into the mainstream. Another video which would receive a lot of air play was I'M NOT HOME RIGHT NOW. The video movie featured a lot of faked behind-the-scenes moments with Cheech and Chong. One funny scene has Chong describing how he acts brain dead in front of the camera. The tighter he tightens the bandanna the stupider he acts. A fitting way to end their partnership (for now).I knew the duo wouldn't end after The Corsican Brothers. They needed to go out on a "high" note. Well, this video did it for them. I wished they would re-release it on D.V.D. Recommended for fans.

blackghost-1 Though not the best C&C film, certainly ranks up there with "Up In Smoke" and my personal favorite "Next Movie". The whole "Ian Rotten" bit in the first part is absolutely hysterical; the irony for "I'm Not Home Right Now" is great, and my favorite part, "Born In East L.A." is a great end to this hilarious mockumentary. The funniest bits come from in between the videos. The scene where the guy is trying to "expose" Cheech and Chong is absolutely hilarious. It's been a while since I watched this bit all the way through, but I recently acquired this hard to find classic and viewed a good portion of it. As I said, though it may not be the best of the Cheech and Chong series, it is certainly worth checking out.

Panar1on Lets face it, Cheech and Chong were never that funny. Don't get me wrong, I liked 'Up In Smoke' a lot, and for me it's still the quintessential smoking film, but they pretty much plundered their albums for a lot of the material and I guess just kind of ran out of comedy mileage afterwards, since they didn't really produce anything else worth watching for the rest of their careers. Ok, maybe 'Things are Tough all Over' deserves another look, although those arabs got old real fast (and not in a Beetlejuice way, sadly), but 'Next Movie and Nice Dreams' are very mediocre and the abysmal non-movies 'Still Smokin' and 'The Corsican Brothers' (shudder) deserve only to be shown to convicted War Criminals.This was the last project they wrote together, and it looks like the parting of the ways came not a moment too soon. Essentially it's a documentary style film of C&C farting around on absolutely no budget (the studio execs were obviously getting a bit wary), interviews with some C&C fans (a worrying lack of basic cognition here), and some truly dreadful music. The gimmicky 'Born in East LA' (which became the basis for a FILM ITSELF, my Godfathers) is the best song to be found, but be prepared to spin through Cheech's ever infurating Ian Rotten character and the truly, truly dire 'I'm not home right now', a strong contendor for both the worst song of the 1980's (and thats up against some pretty stiff competition) and the worst Music Video OF ALL TIME.
