You’ve already seen the first trailer clip, now here’s the second one. We’ve already written a ton about the weed comedy/bildungsroman story, so we don’t really feel like repeating ourselves other than the film stars Sir Ben Kingsley as a therapist who buys weed from his teenage patient (Josh Peck) who eventually falls in love with his daughter (soon-to-be It girl Olivia Thirlby) and oh yeah, there’s a heavy hip-hop soundtrack to this one.
Some are buzzing about that it’s going to be this year’s “Juno,” because of the cool, hip teen angle, but we’re not convinced and having seen them both, it’s obvious that they’re drastically different (“The Wackness” is much more of a drama than that cute preggers comedy).
