DVD Synopsis

Critically acclaimed director David Gordon Green takes a break from the brooding drama that defined such early efforts as George Washington and Undertow for this action-flavored buddy comedy concerning two pot-smoking friends (Seth Rogen and James Franco) who unwittingly become involved with a vicious gang of drug dealers. Judd Apatow and Shauna Robertson produce a script co-penned by star Rogen and Evan Goldberg. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

I was really disappointed with this movie. It is not much more than a rude romp with crude language and stupid situations. None of the characters seem to have any intelligence at all, and the constant profanity just wore on me. The plot could have been made interesting and even funny, but the so-called "jokes" in this movie were just thoughtless and crass junk.

The main character has a job of serving subpoena notices to people wanted in court for various reasons (credit collections, divorce, etc.). While on duty, he is sitting outside a house finishing his joint before going to the door to serve the notice. While waiting, he sees a female police officer go into the house and then witnesses the officer and another man shooting an Asian man up against the very large second story windows. He is so frightened that he drops his joint on the ground before he drives away. As it happens, the man involved in the murder happens to be the only supplier of the very rare dope in the joint and starts to hunt him down based on this "Pineapple Express" dope.

We got about 30 minutes into this movie before we gave up on it.

One of the best movies I have ever seen! This is how to make an action movie that keeps my attention. I laughed like crazy so I am sure I caused myself to miss many other funny goings-on as well. This writing/production team keeps upping the ante with their dialog - especially any scene that has Seth Rogen. Ive been a fan since Freaks and Geeks so its grand to see him going somewhere with his talents.
