SPOILER ALERT---THIS MOVIE IS ABOUT WEED..whoops, gave away the whole plot there... hot damn!...sorry, kids..............................
well, it may be missing that ONE transcendent moment like Tim Curry's "Sweet Transvestite" or Steve Martin's "Dentist", but as high camp goes, this ain't bad stuff...seriously entertaining with great choreography (who knew Neve Campbell was a Fosse girl in hiding, anyway?, fairly intelligent lyrics and some neat comic jabs at the current resident of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave and his merry band of pranksters...smart direction throughout...the whole cast is a hoot, and it's particularly nice to see ana gasteyer finally getting to use those pipes that have been missing from the landscape since her "music teacher" skits with Will Ferrell on SNL...she's a helluva singer, obviously operatically trained, and somebody really oughta get busy writing her into a showcase role ala Barbra ASAP...John Kassir channeling Bobcat Goldthwaite also deserves special mention.
"Reefer"'s a keeper...smoke 'em if you got 'em, folks!
