How High
Jamal and Silas, two ordinary guys who smoke something magical, pass their college entrance exams with flying colors and end up at Harvard. Ivy League ways are strange but Silas and Jamal take it in a stride -- until their supply of supernatural smoke runs dry. That's when they have to start living by their wits and rely on their natural resources to make the grade.

Is "How High" appropriate for children?
ValorScore's Content Advisory for "How High" is "Heavy" (57/100), measuring sex, violence, language, and drug use. One example of the evidence behind this reading: “Para “relaxar” um pouco, os dois colegas decidem puxar um fumo antes da prova. A fumaça mágica que sai de seus baseados evoca o fantasma de Ivory (Chuck Davis), um outro colega de fumo que havia morrido recentemente. Bem relacionado com todos os espíritos inteligentes “do outro lado”, Ivory ajuda os amigos na hora do exame, e ambos são aprovados com nota máxima.” (Os protagonistas fumam uma maconha especial para invocar um fantasma que os ajuda a tirar nota máxima no exame acadêmico.).
