Cheech & Chong head for Amsterdam to play a film festival, where they are mistaken for Burt Reynolds and Dolly Parton and given the royal treatment. This is the first movie in which the duo actually play themselves (as C-list celebrities), rather than their stoned counterparts. The first half-hour is great, while the remaining runtime features them acting out a collection of sketches in preparation for their big stage show. My favorite of these is a skit in which they wrestle the Invisible Man, which is just a masterclass in slapstick acting. The film culminates in live concert footage of some of their greatest hits.
It's considered to be one of their worst, but I love this shit. Fuck the critics.
