Every second word is a swear world that serves absolutely no purpose in the movie other than trying to appeal to ghetto people.This is a pathetic movie that is not fun, just stupid.

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!!!

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

Pineapple Express is one of the many Judd Apatow comedy classics. It is also one of the few that he has done with no sexuality. But there is lots of profanity, drug use and violence. But they are all mixed together in a way that is legitimately funny and not mindless. Sure the characters are dumb stoners, but what comedy doesn't feature dumb characters?Seth Rogen stars as process server, Dale Denton who smokes pot when not delivering subpoenas. His dealer, Saul Silver, gives him a sneak peek at a new brand of weed called "pineapple express." We get a good look in the lives of Dale and Saul. They chill out and deliver killer dialogue that always make my sides ache. When Dale accidentally witnesses a drug lord (Gary Cole) and crooked cop (Perez) murder Asian competition, he tosses his roach and takes Saul on the run with him because the drug could easily be linked to them. That is when the movie starts taking off and becomes its own. Before this, it is almost like any other Judd Apatow movie or late night comedy. Difference is, the beginning of this is much funnier. The drug lord and cop think that Dale and Saul are working for the Asians and try to destroy them. Meanwhile, Dale and Saul go on the run and take the middle man, Red (Danny McBride), with them. As the movie progresses, the elements of danger and drama rise, with the laughs subsiding. There's lots of action and seriousness that helps this stand apart from other adult comedies. The entertainment doesn't stop, we just get a new kind. The laughs don't go away, so the movie does not lose its focus.
