So interesting to see how culture has been altered in each stage of the war on marijuana. Fab 5 Freddy did such a good job on telling this story.

Incredibly entertaining and moving documentary! The pacing is perfection. I laughed so much and it was very powerful at the right moments. Blew me away. The direction, interviews, archival footage, editing and music nailed it. I loved every minute and recommend highly!

An amazing adventure into the history of racist drug policies of the US. Superbly edited, this Doc is one of 2019's best and is a must-see!

A must see. If you are looking for something that will make you go OMG. This is a film for you. Then and only then will your mind be open and you will have to think for your actual selves. Because our leaders have just led us astray... And on that note, I'm going to listen to some jazz, blues and reggae music now.

Let me be blunt, Netflix’s new documentary film, Grass is Greener, is a stand-out effort from filmmaker Fred Brathwaite, bringing a steady hand to a film that is as eye-opening as it is sobering.

I'm glad what will inevitably be referred to as "the Netflix weed doc" is largely about the war on drugs' outsized effect on radicalized communities and the current intense discrimination with regards to the burgeoning legal market.

Whether you are a cannabis fan or not, Grass Is Greener will convince you that weed should be legal, for more than just a new revenue stream for states.

In Greener's view, until those most affected by the War on Drugs are put in a position to directly benefit from legalization, it's not really accomplishing anything at all.
