An Iconic day needs an iconic film. 

Get yours snacks in hand, light your favourite pre-roll, and curl into the couch: It’s movie time. And not just any movie time — it’s 4/20 movie time. 

Whether you’re into stoner classics, trippy visuals, hilarious throwbacks, or something that just hits different when you’re a little (or a lot) high, we’ve put together the ultimate list of 420-friendly films to keep it high.

1. Pineapple Express (2008)

We don’t even need to explain this one, it’s the OG of OGs… The gold standard of modern stoner cinema. Seth Rogen, James Franco, and a weed strain so iconic they made a movie about it.

Best paired with: a citrusy sativa, a big laugh, and some nachos that may or may not be entirely for you.

2. Spirited Away (2001)

Studio Ghibli at its most mind-bending and beautiful. Watch Chihiro navigate the spirit world while your edible gently kicks in.

Best paired with: a mellow hybrid and some truly wild Japanese snacks.

3. Friday (1995)

Classic. Iconic. A cultural reset. Ice Cube and Chris Tucker turn a regular day into a legendary one.

Best paired with: a couch-lock indica and your favourite fast food order.

4. Dazed and Confused (1993)

Nothing like a nostalgic trip back to the '70s. Teen angst, great music, and Matthew McConaughey doing the most.

Best paired with: something earthy and groovy. Bonus points if you're wearing bell bottoms.

5. Into the Spider-Verse (2018)

A visual masterpiece that makes your high brain go: "Wait... did that just happen?!" Every frame is art.

Best paired with: a bright, euphoric sativa and maybe a second viewing.

6. Half Baked (1998)

It wouldn’t be a 420 movie list without this one. Dave Chappelle. Talking to dogs. That whole flying-through-the-convenience-store thing. You already know.

Best paired with: an old-school strain and a deep belly laugh.

7. Fantastic Mr. Fox (2009)

Wes Anderson in his stop-motion era. Wholesome, chaotic, and weirdly profound. A top-tier comfort watch.

Best paired with: something chill and chocolatey. Bonus points if you say "what the cuss" at least once.

8. Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas (1998)

A chaotic masterpiece. Only watch if you’re ready to buckle up and go full send.

Best paired with: honestly, maybe a microdose. And lots of water.

9. Scott Pilgrim vs. The World (2010)

Toronto shoutout. Comic book meets video game meets love story. It's weird. It's wonderful. It's kind of perfect.

Best paired with: a balanced hybrid and someone who’ll laugh at all the Toronto references with you.

10. Planet Earth (2006+)

David Attenborough + whales = a spiritual experience. Zero plot. Maximum wonder.

Best paired with: a calming indica and your coziest blanket.

Let's wrap it up

Whatever you pick, the best 420 movie is the one that hits you right in the soul (or just makes you laugh until you cry).

Load up the queue, pass the popcorn, and stay lifted. 

Don’t forget you can get weed delivered to your door with us.
