A delirious and zany stoner’s odyssey. Low on plot, high on pot, rough around the edges, and certainly could have used a generous helping of editing to keep things tighter, but even so, The Lad Goodbye is more engaging, funny, and memorable than I expected it to be, and considering its limitations, I would say this is an admirable first effort from the Film Lads. Also, Jean Wayne for Best Supporting Actor.
