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!!!

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

This rumpled, shaggy comedy was somewhat amusing at first. It was genial, generally amusing, and not afraid to do something ridiculous like giving Seth Rogan a high schooler for a girlfriend and have everyone accept it.That's fine for a while, but this is a movie where you need to really like the basics of a buddy comedy between two bumbling stoners, because that's all there is. Cheap sex jokes, cheap joke drugs, over-the-top action that is never particularly exciting, are things you crave desperately, because that's pretty much all you'll get.By the halfway point I was tempted to give up on this, but I did watch it all the way through. It wasn't a horrible experience, but you probably need to be stoned to appreciate this fully.

Electric, Eclectic, and Eccentric Stoner Movie made for Pot-Heads with Poo-Poo Jokes and Violent Action added to aid Moderns and make Them feel Welcome even if They Do Not Partake.It's not a perfect Picture. The Aforementioned Potty Jokes and the usual Gross-Out Stuff that just won't Go Away Nowadays is, by now, just Ho-Hum and seems to be used Ad-Nauseum to Separate Generations and keep the Gap Wide. A couple of Other Things don't work. Seth Rogen's Romantic Side-Story is Nothing and goes Nowhere. Amber Heard is Wasted here, no She doesn't Smoke Weed, it's Her Character and the Side-Story in the Script that's Wasted.One other ill advised Misstep is the Scene with the Middle-School Kids. There is just No-Way that is going to be Anything but Cringe Inducing. No matter how You Bend and Shape the Scenario, when shown On Screen it comes across as Cross Purpose.Those Minor Asides, the Movie is a Hoot. Seth Rogen plays "Self" perfect and James Franco is also perfectly paced and placed. This is back when He wasn't Everywhere and Suffering from Overexposure. The rest of the Cast contribute and the Improvisation is as Funny as the Script which is quite Funny.The Action Finale is Violent, Bloody, and it may feel Awkward to some, it's an OK Ending and Spins-Off the Thematic Pot-Buds and Bonding that make up the rest of the Movie. It's not Completely Out of Context and works just Fine.Overall, the Target Audience will be Amused and those Oblivious or Hostile to the Marijuana Mantra should Avoid for Obvious Reasons.
