Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe dog that took the burrito out of Man's hand was not a trained dog, but a local stray. He simply walked into frame, took the burrito, and walked away. Cheech Marin and Tommy Chong ad-libbed around this, and it was left in the movie.
- GoofsWhen Cheech and Chong are crossing the street in Mexico, someone in a passing bus flashes a peace sign at the camera.
- Quotes
Border Guard: So, how long you've been in Mexico?
Pedro: A week. I mean a day.
Border Guard: Well, which is it? A week or a day?
Pedro: A weekday.
- Crazy creditsThe opening credits are in the style of spray-painted graffiti, super-imposed over Pedro's low-rider.

Featured review
Great movie. If you don't mind all the pot!
Of all the Cheech & Chong movies made, I think this one, their first, was their best. There's no real story line you have to follow. The point of this movie was to make you laugh. No messages or extra drama. It's the kind of movie to just sit back and laugh at. I do realize that this movie is definitely not for everyone. Some parents might not want to let their children see it and some people may not want to watch it themselves. The movie features a lot of drugs and some drug use (In case you're not familiar with Cheech & Chong movies). However, if you're not offended by that, and you've never seen this movie before, you should check it out for a good laugh!
