Movies traditionally are released in theaters on Wednesdays and Fridays, but come Monday, April 20, “4/20” the movie will be released on Vimeo on the date that’s considered a perennial stoner holiday — it has even greater significance this month seeing as the year is 2020.
Producer Corey Moss, a veteran of MTV and management company Principato-Young, says the film is taking its lead from “Super Troopers 2,” which opened on April 20, 2018, and went on to gross $18.4 million at the U.S. box office. “Whoever picked that release date was brilliant,” he says. “Back then, we jokingly said we should make a weed movie for next year’s 4/20. Then we jokingly said we should call it 4/20. Then we jokingly said it should be like ‘Love Actually’ or the Garry Marshall holiday movies, with multiple storylines that interweave.”

The Boonies, and yes that is undoubtedly a play on That more famous 80s action-adventure comedy, sees five seniors – who were childhood best friends who nicknamed themselves The Boonies – become reunited after a dead classmates video reveals a million dollar treasure hunt inside Boone high school
I’m not going to lie, about 30 minutes into The Boonies I realised that I’d totally zoned out and was not paying attention to what was going on in the film. Why? Well for a lot of this films initial running time it’s a cliched, stereotypical character-filled, homage to the kids films of the 80s. But a bad homage. Maybe it’s because the title is a riff on The Goonies and I was expecting something more,...
