Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
The latest bro-mance from team Apatow (the guys who brought us Superbad, Knocked Up and The 40-Year-Old Virgin), Pineapple Express is the story of Dale Denton (Seth Rogan) and Saul Silver (James Franco), a pothead and his dealer who accidently get caught up in a drug war between two gangs with some corrupt cops, high-school girls and small-time henchmen thrown in for good measure. At its core, Pineapple Express is a stoner comedy–a tale of two semi-slow giggling and loveable idiots in way over their heads–this formula has made for some entertaining comedy over the years, Cheech and Chong’s Up in Smoke and Dave Chappell’s Half Baked being two of the best examples. What sets Pineapple Express apart from these silly classics however, is the consistency of the humor, the perfect chemistry between Rogan and Franco and the giddily ridiculous action sequences (and the fact that even mild intoxication is not required to enjoy the humor). The movie retains the sweetness that is present in most of Apatow’s films, making the characters’ poor choices and ultra-violent actions somehow justifiable, or at least relatable. The site gags, pop-culture references and perfectly timed non-sequiturs only enhance the hilarity. Director David Gordon Green, known mostly for the understated and reflective films George Washington and All the Real Girls, seemed like an odd choice for such a raucous and over-the-top comedy, but it turns out Green’s stamp is all over this film (as is his long-time cinematographer, Tim Orr) who together manage to turn Pineapple Express into much more than the sum of its parts. –Kira Canny

- Our Generation’s Cheech And Chong.
this movie is comedy genius. i went into theaters not expecting it to suck or to be amazing , and it blew me out of the water. i could not stop laughing the entire time i was watching it. first of all the script is hilarious and even though i love seth rogen, james franco stole the show as Sal, the drug dealer. he is so loveable and funny. they are def our generation’s cheech and chong. i hope they make more movies as funny as this because we need them.

- An Incredible Disappointment
I am a huge fan of both director David Gordon Green (All the Real Girls and George Washington are superb pieces of cinema) and Seth Rogen, both as a writer and a performer, but this film is an incredible mess.
Essentially it is a chase picture with no chase. None of the humor worked, the characters were annoying, the editing was terrible, and the action scenes were bland and uninspired.
And the excuse that “you don’t smoke pot, therefore you won’t get this movie” is absurd. I didn’t have … Read More

- Funnier Every Time I see it
If you want a good stoner movie that seemes to get funnier the more you see it then give this movie a look. I would put it up there with Cheech and Chong and Harold and Kumar. Enjoy and happy trips

- Hilarious Storyline, LOL Dialogue, Strong Acting
I thought this movie was hilarious. I loved that James Franco was in a comedic role, because he was very funny in FREAKS & GEEKS, but lately has done almost only dramatic roles.
As with most Judd Apatow movies, it might have been 15-20 minutes too long, but other than that, it was clever, yet silly…ridiculous, yet intelligently crafted. One thing I liked is that it took common comedy conventions and spun tose things 180 degrees in the opposite direction to give you some shock humor, rather … Read More

- Stoner Comedy Mixes Laughs & Action
“Pineapple Express” has so many good things going for it, it’s a shame it undermines them with odd shifts in tone and a schizophrenic structure.
Dale Denton (Seth Rogen) is a process server. The job suits him because it offers plenty of time to smoke joints and get high in his car as he drives around to find his marks and hand them subpoenas. His friendly dealer, Saul Silver (James Franco), is a laid back, long-haired dude who maintains a constant high and likes to state impressive, heavy thoughts … Read More
