Review of Have a Good Trip: Adventures in Psychedelics (2020) by Juanitito — 12 May 2020

While the rediscovery of psychedelics is a great and necessary thing, this "documentary" is not helping. At all. First of all it is a very lazy piece of filmmaking, no structure, just interviews of famous people who dropped acid. A good number of them explaining how they drove cars while tripping or how they mixed psychedelics with many other drugs. Then, there is almost no valuable information about psychedelics, only these celebrities describing their trips and rehashed skits poking fun at 80's after school specials. In the middle of this mess, Dr Grob (a respected researcher in the use of psychedelics) makes an appearance providing 2/3 minutes of adult supervision and genuinely interesting information.

So while the intention of rehabilitating psychedelics is good, this movie does it in the worst way possible. That being said, it was cool seeing Anthony Bourdain again...
