Star Leaf

This movie has had bad reviews but if I'm honest it is a light hearted adventure into the effects of weed. I thought it was above average and enjoyed the plot. Those who slated it should maybe try some and chillax. The cast was in my mind pretty good, the storyline was believable and could happen. If you haven't woke up after a night camping and was confused about what happened the previous night then you have lived a sheltered life. Don't be so serious it's a movie for gods sake, it's entertainment. No GPS no phone, no photos, no samples just like a whisky distillery. Take the tour and enjoy the experience.

Soldier with combat stress is led by his stoner friends into a forest to partake of a legendary drug, and weird dangers emerge from the undergrowth.

Surprising low budget sci-fi hallucinatory type of thing with a message about coming to terms. It doesn't look great, but it's not tediously trippy and the modest effects deliver the menace pretty well. The acting is decent, and while the characters aren't deep there is some nice idiosyncrasy. And the pace is good.

The only thing I didn't like was the music - sounded like an '80s TV show.

Overall good entertainment and good natured.

Oh dear.

I went into this thinking hopefully that-given the subject matter-it might be a low budget, cheesy but fun drug culture comedy romp that just might be a sleepy cult classic. No, it was just one big hot, steamy mess. The acting by the three young leads was atrocious, the special effects were laughable and the story was all over the place. I was confused from the second act on. What's unfortunate is that HAD the film makers gone with cheesy but fun instead of attempting a somewhat serious movie with a synopsis that is no way serious and on a shoestring budget, they might have ended up with an okay little flick. The only reason I made myself watch the whole, sad thing is because I knew I wanted to put my two cents in and I don't feel right doing a review unless I've seen the entire film. But it never got better, just further down the toilet. The reviewers who gave this awful piece of dreck a10? Really? Makes me wonder how they rate GOOD movies? But as for "Star Weed"- I suggest you move along...nothing to see here.

Its not a good movie. Its not God awful either though. Its watchable. More like a student film. There are some really good ideas here that could spawn a series/franchise. I hope so. Very cool premise.

The movie is as bad as the plot sounds. Aliens growing weed for some special people, testing them out, bla bla.

I'm going to go into very few words here, it has no horror elements, tries to induce some tension, some mystery, fails each time, ends predictably. Luckily for me, it has only 75 minutes, so there is an upside to it. The movie itself is avoidable! Only if you're into weed movies, could this pass as a junky cheesy fun!

I'm also quite done with stereotypes, all of them present here, the smoker, running away from responsibility, the girl, always trashy and the war "veteran", still facing his inner demons. Can't we do something betters, I mean it is 2016 almost, how many such copy cat movies are we supposed to endure?

Cheers!
