If you don't like this, we can't be friends.

Excellent but underrated film

Best movie ever!

Ron Mann (Grass) documents Woody Harrelson and a group of his Hippy friends and Activists on their journey across California, on bikes and in their 60's inspired hemp-oil fueled "spirit bus", to promote environmentalism, biofuel, organic farming, veganism, hemp & marijuana, yoga and showing how a small group of people can make an inspirational difference when it comes to changing minds and countering the destructive habits that humanity has come to develop.I'll end with one of my favourite quotes, from Jung: "Our rationalistic attitude leads us to believe we can work wonders with international organizations, legislation, and other well-meant devices. But in reality only a change in the attitude of the individual can bring about a renewal in the spirit of nations. Everything begins with the individual."

This movie was pretty good ... I have a few pointers for those who have not watched it yet. It's probably a good idea to keep children out of the room when watching this.. there are some scenes with drugs and nudity .. but the movie is overall very very funny... a little cheesy in parts tho. Watch out for the hippie song!. Especially if you are watching this in a classroom as I did. It's just so hard not to laugh.. because they are SUCH HIPPIES ! overall, this film had some very interesting points. it is definitely an eye-opener for those who just don't see nature in it's beauty, it's entirety. oh well .. all i can say is that I enjoyed this movie very much .. probably just because it has Woody in it.. and don't we all love woody ??

I'm all for the promotion of healthy organic living and seeking out sustainable alternatives, however I found this flick to be totally clichéd.Woody gathers together a band of merry makers including a raw food chef, yoga teacher and a lawyer for activists and embarks on a bike riding/biofuelled bus trip down the coast. None of his team was really introduced properly, or seemed to have anything relevant to say, and I found myself cringing at the "hippie" stereotypes -- sensationalist fear mongering and pot smoking in the back seat of the bus (I mean, I'm no doctor, but occasionally enjoying baked food isn't going to do something horrid to your pancreas, as suggested by the raw food chef - and not all diary contains blood and pus - the USA is one of a few countries that has approved the use of bovine growth hormone)There are a myriad of intelligent and scientific arguments for switching to an organic lifestyle, none of which were presented in this film, which instead focused on the "vibe" with shots of the gang holding hands, dancing naked on the beach, completing a yogic sun salutation and the odd piece of footage of a clear cut forest or extinct animal.Included in the party is some random guy that seems to be shocked by the revelation that twinkies are not a health food, and makes pathetic attempts at humour (say no to corn dogs... etc).If you're after something that has something political to say, is intelligent, well researched AND entertaining - GO TO ANOTHER DOCO.I suggest The Fog of War, The Corporation or Supersize Me instead :)

Caught this at the Chicago film festival and loved it so much that I saw it twice. This journal about an enlightening road trip has so many wonderful moments that even if you don't agree with its principles, you will still have a good time. I discovered some life-changing tips, which hardly even happens at the movies. But don't go for the message, go for the good time. Great musical interludes too!
