- 85Film ThreatAlan NgFilm ThreatAlan NgWaldo On Weed does a fantastic job following Waldo’s adventure of healing and convincing audiences on the benefits of medical marijuana. What sets this film apart from other documentaries on the same subject is the personal battles the Dwyer’s would go through.
- 75Movie NationRoger MooreMovie NationRoger MooreWe miss the cute, upbeat tone of the film’s opening chapter in its latter stages, as the family becomes CBD refugees (people move where the legal drug that’s helping them is). But Waldo on Weed is still the most adorable piece of cinematic advocacy for legalizing pot ever filmed.
- 70VarietyNick SchagerVarietyNick SchagerMore than the film’s activist message, however, it’s writer-director Tommy Avallone’s portrait of whatever-it-takes parental risk and sacrifice that will help it resonate with audiences no matter their views on marijuana.
