Multi-platinum rap superstars Redman and Method Man star as Jamal and Silas, two regular guys who smoke something magical, ace their college entrance exams and wind up at Harvard. Ivy League ways are strange but Silas and Jamal take it in a stride -- until their supply of supernatural smoke runs dry. That's when they have to start living by their wits and rely on their natural resources to make the grade.

Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
How High doesn't look like a movie somebody made. It looks like a movie somebody hallucinated and put up on the screen.

fresh:
Features a fine mix of several generations of comic talent plus a terrific soundtrack from its stars.

rotten:
Too lazy to be a comedy, too conventional to be a head movie.
– Jessica Winter,
Village Voice,

fresh:
Maintains a consistent level of a swaggering, semi-anarchic silliness reminiscent of '70s youth-skewing comedies.
– Joe Leydon,

rotten:
Despite the comedy's reliance on drug humor, first-time director Jesse Dylan is actually less interested in getting high than in seeing how low he can go.
