Jane (Anna Faris), a struggling but perpetually stoned actress, has a busy day ahead. She has several important tasks on her list, including buying more marijuana. Even though she already has a good start on the day's planned drug use, she eats her roommate's pot-laced cupcakes and embarks on a series of misadventures all over Los Angeles.
Smiley Face

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Although many of the jokes have been done before, Anna Faris's bright performance and Gregg Araki's sharp direction make Smiley Face more than your average stoner comedy.

Despite its laid-back script, Smiley Face is as prankishly political as Mr. Araki's Doom Generation... Go to Full Review
Nathan Lee Village Voice Dec 28, 2007
Dylan Haggerty has written an eleventh-hour candidate for the funniest movie of 2007, that Gregg Araki has directed his finest film since 1997's Nowhere, and that Faris, flawless, rocks their inspired idiot odyssey in a virtuoso comedic turn. Go to Full Review

It has Anna Faris in full goofball mode, which is a treat, but she's the only element in the effort that's worth following, as the rest of the offering can't rise above dismal ideas for comedy. Go to Full Review

This film-jam-packed with guest appearances-is a sweet, surreal nugget... Go to Full Review
David Lamble Bay Area Reporter May 20, 2020
Mysterious Skin's brilliant Gregg Araki (with writer Dylan Haggerty) takes a filmmaker's version of a busman's holiday, telling the hilarious misadventures of a young woman who wolfs down a whole tray of her roommate's pot-laced cupcakes... Go to Full Review

Luke S Jan 28, 2017 Anna Faris gets really high and super annoying. Despite that Smiley Face has a couple of layers as one would expect from Writer/Director Gregg Araki but its mild John Waters-ness doesn't make it much more fun to watch. See more
Han S Jul 16, 2011 What a piece of shit. And I'm stoned and love Anna Faris.
