I never understood the appeal of this movie. There's no plot, no structure, and no character development. It's just watching a dumbass stoner stumble around while more interesting things are alluded to happening offscreen but there's never any payoff for those teased bits.
I understand the point, I normally hate stoner comedy but this is something elevated, complex, quotable. Genuinely hilarious. Maybe give it one more chance?
