Pineapple Express Audience Reviews

Acensbart Excellent but underrated film
FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
Celia A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
mcleanmuir Crazy film that will suit some and disappoint others. Nearly turned it off after ten minutes but continued to view to see how it all ended up. It raised a few laughs. Not the best film or the worst film I've seen.
Michael Ledo I watched the unrated version. The plot of the film is a simple cat and mouse as a couple of stoners attempt to get away from their supplier who wants to kill them over witnessing a murder. The plot was mostly immaterial as the film was nothing but stoner humor, people smoking pot and acting odd. The film goes on for nearing two hours replicating the same humor which got stale after 35 minutes.Plenty of F-bombs. No sex or nudity. Might be 5 stars if stoned, otherwise it is an avoid production
Gabriel Lee In light of the disappointment of THE INTERVIEW, looking back on PINEAPPLE EXPRESS gives me even more appreciation for it. The use of comic timing was incredibly refreshing, and there were so many moments of off-beat humor that made me laugh my ass off. Much of the humor comes from the main duo's incompetence in all situations, due to their consumption of the devil's lettuce, and that might not seem like a good setup. However, there are some clever nuanced moments that are quite well-crafted.Granted, I don't think the humor is for everyone and some moments are cringe-inducingly childish, but there's something to be said for this awkward, comedy-of-errors type feel that's present in this film.A masterpiece? By no means.Hilarious? Hell, yeah.Overall, if you want to have a good time with a movie that isn't COMPLETELY brainless, but don't want to think too much, PINEAPPLE EXPRESS is the comedy for you.
Python Hyena Pineapple Express (2008): Dir: David Gordon Green / Cast: Seth Rogen, James Franco, Danny McBride, Gary Cole, Rosie Perez: Twisted yet innovative dark comedy that goes from extreme humour to heavy action as if the writers were perhaps on something. Title refers to a type of marijuana that lands two stoners in trouble when a murder is witnessed. The underline theme seems to address the mindset and careless actions taken as a result of drugs. Director David Gordon Green improves upon his independent All the Real Girls where his talent is still in its beginner stage. He brings the familiarity of the subject matter within a screenplay littered with hilarious lines. Some viewers may see it as a celebration of illegal substances with violent consequences. Seth Rogan plays a careless stoner whose girlfriend is in high school. James Franco plays his friend who introduces him to the dope. Danny McBride plays the middle man with a high survival rate. Gary Cole plays the drug lord who is at war with Asian dealers but the role is cardboard. Rosie Perez gives a gung ho performance as a no nonsense police woman on the trail. The action is brutal and a complete turnaround from the dope humour previously set as the presumed tone of the film. It brings humour out of the mindset and the rapid spiral into trouble as their so-called innocent lifestyle births its nightmare. Score: 7 ½ / 10
