Getting High

About This Movie

Getting High is an intriguing dive into the complexities of perception and thought, wrapped in a mesmerizing fantasy shroud. The film plays with color and sound, especially that green tint, pulling you into this hazy state that feels oddly familiar yet dreamlike. Pacing is almost languid, which fits the exploration of the mind's maze, as our narrator drifts through these vignettes—each one a distinct blend of whimsy and introspection. You can’t help but appreciate the practical effects that lend a tactile feel to the surreal visuals. It's not your typical narrative flow; it meanders like thoughts do, making it a distinctive experience. The performances have this raw quality, adding depth to an already layered viewing experience.
