Up in Smoke Ratings & Reviews
Newark Star-Ledger
Richard Freedman
"Up in Smoke" is not really very funny.
Film Frenzy
Matt Brunson
Cheech Marin and Thomas Chong prove to be irresistible anti-establishment figures in this consistently amusing dum-dum comedy.
Common Sense Media
Brian Costello
Classic stoner comedy has drugs, language, sex.
Q Network Film Desk
James Kendrick
a shaggy slice of slacker comedy, and while no one will mistake it for a particularly well-made movie, it is imminently likeable and repeatedly watchable
TV Guide
TV Guide Staff
The funniest of all the Cheech and Chong movies, Up in Smoke provides a feast of gags for the sympathetically minded.
Variety
Variety Staff
What's lacking in Up in Smoke is a cohesiveness in both humor and characterization.
Chicago Reader
Dave Kehr
Director Lou Adler (the record producer) finds a few chuckles, but mostly it's amateur night.
EmanuelLevy.Com
Emanuel Levy
This Cheech and Chong weed comedy was dismissed by most critics (and parents) but it was embraced by young viewers and launched the subgenre of "stoner" comedies way before Linklater made Slacker.
Slant Magazine
Fernando F. Croce
As far as comedic ingredients go, weed is not so much a surefire laugh-getter as it is a free-floating lubricant capable of setting off wicked complications.
Rob's Movie Vault
Rob Gonsalves
Cheech & Chong had their act down pat by '78 and turned out to be a natural movie-comedy team.
Filmcritic.com
Christopher Null
Up in Smoke is the world's most revered -- and most idiotic -- drug movie.
Austin Chronicle
Marjorie Baumgarten
The duo wrote the genial script about the never-ending search for great pot, and a good supporting cast co-stars.
eFilmCritic.com
Scott Weinberg
The boys first, and still their best, foray into cinematic stonededness.
