Pineapple Express Audience Reviews

Stoutor It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.
WillSushyMedia This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.
Numerootno A story that's too fascinating to pass by...
Tobias Burrows It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
justin-fencsak When it comes to stoner comedies, none was as funny as The Pineapple Express. Released during the summer of the superheroes, this comedy became a surprise hit at the box office and made Seth Rogen and James Franco superstars in their own right. Judd Apatow, fresh off the successes of 40 year old virgin and knocked up, produced this cult classic with direction by David Gordon Green on a moderate budget and a successful ad campaign set to the tune of MIA's hit Paper Planes. The bluray release was one of the first to have a digital copy on another disc before digital HD became widespread (the code has since expired) and became a huge seller and a frequent tv staple. So, grab some cannabis take some weed and watch this movie late at night!!!
khaleequeanwar Totally waste of time, i can not even understand on what things people laugh :o This movie doesnot have a single scene worth watching or having a comedy sense! they tried to mixed up things like action, comedy and romance but totally failed in doing so!!! The two stars are just because i liked the poster :D
dierregi Rogen and Franco are Dale and Saul, a couple of weed-smoking slackers who get involved in a murder. This type of movie is usually targeted to a young audience and tends to be filled with gross profane jokes, bad language and stupidity. Here we have plenty of bad language and stupidity, but the jokes are actually quite funny. Having mostly seen Franco in "serious" movies, I was surprised by his comic skills. He is hilarious as the perpetually stoned Saul, blurting out one idiotic sentence after the other. He is also very cute and a bit of eye candy never hurts. Rogen seems always to play the same part of obnoxious, lazy looser, but here he was funnier and slightly more energetic than usual.The fight scenes were actually hilarious and sort of believable, with people hitting each other like in real life, without any spectacular stunt. They "just" punched randomly, often hitting the wrong target and screaming in pain. Danny McBride in the supporting role of Red is also funny and so is Begley Jr. in the small role of the crazy father of Dale's girlfriend.
srdjan_veljkovic Well, the start is slow and long because it's not really funny unless you find pot smokers acting stoned funny in itself.After a while (about an hour) things start to move away from "pot- heavy" and get much better, but not great. There are interesting ideas, but it's still mostly gags, many of which don't work very well.The dynamics between the two main characters don't feel genuine. Sure, they're stoned all the time, but that shouldn't effect how they feel and you seeing it - it should only affect how they express their feelings. It's not enough for them to just say what they feel, because that's in the script, they should act like it.Also, the end doesn't really tie loose ends, which is strange for a movie this long.
