The New York Times Jeannette Catsoulis
The movie is 74 minutes of hilarious pro-drug vignettes, loosely strung together like a themed episode of "Saturday Night Live."
Read Full Review >The Onion (A.V. Club) Tasha Robinson
Writer-director-producer-actor-composer-singer Soling claims to have spent a year researching the war on drugs before deciding to make a satire instead of a documentary, but he apparently threw most of his facts out the window in favor of absurdism, exaggeration, slander, and self-congratulatory humor.
Read Full Review >TV Guide Ken Fox
Like so much dope humor, Soling's logic is fuzzy, and you'd have to be pretty high to find any of it funny.
Read Full Review >New York Daily News Elizabeth Weitzman
Seemingly made while writer-director-star Cevin Soling was heavily under the influence, this generally witless ode to illegal substances is apparently meant to be viewed that way, as well.
Read Full Review >New York Post Kyle Smith
Strings together 60 amateurish short films to tell us drugs are cool, man.
Read Full Review >Village Voice Peter L'Official
Ineptitude is so thorough here that War on . . . could only make sense as a sinister governmental smear campaign to justify the war on drugs and total sobriety.
