Great movie! I have read a lot of bad reviews about Rolling Kansas, but I disagree with all of them. Fantastic! Three brothers and two friends driving up two states to a magical forest of marijuana and they make a... Full review

Every once in a while a movie comes out that you can show to the network of "friends that truly appreciate good movies" and everyone agrees that, indeed, this really is a good movie. Although a rare occasion, when the... Full review

I caught this flick on Comedy Central this weekend while holed up with the flu and depression. I really didn't expect much, just another "worship the bong" film, which this isn't. if you think about it, you never see the... Full review

As far as marijuana themed counter culture comedies go, there aren't many that are memorable. " Half Baked " With Jim Bruer & Dave Chappelle had it's moments ( Including Jerry Garcia as an apparition ) as did the Cheech... Full review

The movie itself is fairly uneventful, not much happens, but it's funny as hell. Great performances by the cast of actors who all played tiny parts, but very funny parts in other films. It is in a sense a stoner... Full review
Rolling Kansas a character driven stoner movie, no way!

Rolling Kansas has the unique opportunity of actually being a good character driven film hidden beneath the paper mache surface of a stoner movie. A gaggle of young men, a car, a cooler of beer on a search of mythical... Full review
Entertaining, but nothing special

Stoner comedies seem like the easiest type of movies to make. All it takes is a decent cast, a bunch of drug jokes, a good soundtrack, and a smattering of crude humor to make at least a somewhat enjoyable stoner... Full review

Everything in this weed-coated Thomas Haden Church adventure reminds me of almost any of the Beastie Boys music videos I've seen. Everything from the faded, washed-out, sepia-toned coloring to the fake mustaches worn by THC to conceal his identity as... Full review

Ok. So i saw this movie yesterday at the USCAF 2003 and was graced with the presence of Haden Church for the screening. I always have a hard time watching a movie with the filmmakers (I know, poor me!) because... Full review

although a gratuitous scene in a strip club called "The Poon Saloon"....The film had an interesting sense of humor....I wouldn't really recommend the movie.....They once again play federal agents who confront the group of dope fiends near the end of the film.....The main characters in the film all have there little quirks (one who "knows" he's gay, a cripple, a fat narcoleptic, etc.) and the group works pretty well together..... ...

A lame-brained, pot-smoking comedy that's genial, good-natured and more than a bit funny, Thomas Haden Church's "Rolling Kansas" does honor to the cinematic legacy of Cheech & Chong.
And, since, there are few scenes here that risk offending anyone under the age of 80, it's a stoner comedy the whole family can enjoy.

You can like this movie, even....it lacks the heartfelt characters that could have made it a great comedy.....Probably the only condition more often exploited in movies for easy laughs is Tourette's Syndrome.....Rolling Kansas," a not unenjoyable little outing, has its share of easy laughs and too-familiar situations.... ...
