Nothing will ever top Cheech and Chong's Up in Smoke, but I think #2 on my list of their films is Nice Dreams. It also seems to be more related to the storyline of Up in Smoke in that Stacey Keatch reprises his role as Sgt. Steddenko. Hey what can I say funny is funny, especially when you watch in an enhanced state.

The plot? Well I suppose you could guess what it's about: weed. The boys are "ice cream" dealers with the best push-ups in town - you'll see what I mean. They know some crazy scientist who is producing some killer weed, with some unintended consequences. The narcs are on the case...hilarity ensues.

There are some classic situations - the chinese restaurant, the nuts in the backgound at the insane asylum get me every time. Especially the old guy that just keeps laughing like a madman! The ending is pretty funny too as they finally make it to "paradise". You get to see Paul Reubens perform a proto Pee Wee Herman and even LSD guru Timothy Leary makes an appearence.

And like all C&C there is some corny parts as well - the biker chasing a naked Cheech kind of looses its luster the 2000th time you see it. But this is the kind of film you and your stoner buddies can recite - see title of this review - and is usually in someone's DVD library.
