7.5, really.
I think this is a really solid stoner movie. It has the 'quest' elements that good stoner movies have and it's a worthy quest - a shawshank redemption ("the shank") marathon on TNT that they just -have- to see.
I didn't find the jokes stale. The jokes themselves aren't all incredibly innovative but I thought Danny Masterson's acting lifted a lot of them to a higher level. Great comedic timing and he says a lot without saying it.
It would have received a higher grade if the ending didn't feel rushed.
Oh, and worth watching just for the -terrific-, but small, performances of John C. McGinley as scam artist, Ben Tolpin as Mikey and Terry Crews as a wanna-be rapper.
Recommended.
