Cheech and Chong’s Last Movie Review: Brotherly Love, Bullsh*t, and the Long Strange Trip Home

A colorful movie poster for “Cheech & Chong’s Last Movie.” The artwork shows Tommy Chong and Cheech Marin sitting in a classic car, smiling and laughing as Chong holds a snack bag. A large silver cannabis leaf hood ornament is centered on the car. The sky is pastel with palm trees, desert hills, and a woman in the background. Text at the top reads “Cheech Marin, Tommy Chong – Cheech & Chong’s Last Movie.” At the bottom: “Exclusively in theaters April 25. Bring a bud & see it first on 4/20!” The license plate reads “KPSMOKN.”

Cheech and Chong’s Last Movie isn’t a stoner flick, it’s a raw, trippy confessional from two counterculture icons who shaped comedy and cannabis forever. With Dave Bushell behind the camera, the film blends archival chaos, animation, and unresolved tension into a story about brotherhood, pain, and legacy. It's not just a documentary. It’s an honest trip home.
