Unnecessary. 8/10

- DirectorOliver StoneStarsAaron Taylor-JohnsonTaylor KitschBlake LivelyPot growers Ben and Chon face off against the Mexican drug cartel who kidnapped their shared girlfriend.i went into this thinking it would be as good as its rating, around a 6, 6.5. I was more than surprised by how well this movie did exactly what it wanted to do. Most movies, while they might be good, still fail to reach its potential. This one does not. No out of place car chases, no 30 minute poorly managed gun battles and no forever romances. The love interest in this actually SERVED A PURPOSE! rare. 7.5/10
