3.0 out of 5 stars Decent if unspectacular comedy, June 9, 2009

By	Brian A. Schar (Menlo Park, CA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Pineapple Express (Unrated + BD Live) [Blu-ray] (Blu-ray)

The ubiquitous Seth Rogen stars in yet another comedy, which is fine with me. Unlike a lot of comedies, this one actually delivers laughs. It's not hysterically funny, and there was less comedy than I would like. But, at least there were some funny bits. "Pineapple Express" suffers the same flaw as most comedies, in that it's too long. (I didn't watch the longer director's cut version, opting instead for the theatrical version.) 90 minutes is the magic number for a comedy; you had better have a good excuse for going over. This film did not. Chopping about 20 minutes out of this would have improved it immensely.

Seth Rogen plays himself, as always, and he's good at it. James Franco was fantastic, and his Golden Globe nomination was well-deserved. Ed Begley, Jr. got to play a character out of his normal range, and was really the comedic star of this film in the few scenes he was in.

As my wife perceptively noted, we were not the target demographic for this movie. I suspect a younger group would enjoy it more. Nonetheless, it's a least worth a rent, particularly if you don't go into it with high expectations.

5.0 out of 5 stars Will make you sick you laugh so hard, January 9, 2009

By	J. Bowman - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Pineapple Express (Single-Disc Unrated Edition) (DVD)

I think some reviewer's miss the point. The writer, director, etc. did everything with this movie that they intented to. They wanted to create a funny movie obviously, but they also wanted to make a point. Seth Rogen's character say's it best when Franco's character is offering him a hit and he doesn't want it, that they are not very functional when they are high and that's why they have got into so much trouble. The movie is funny, so funny I actually made myself sick to my stomach from laughing so hard.

James Franco has played his best part ever in my opinion, the sweet, sometimes a little clueless Saul. Then, sometimes he pulls it all together and you see a flash of the person through the haze of smoke. Endearing to the last line with a great smile.You think he has no idea of what Seth Rogen's character think's about him and then at one point he pull's out a list of everything Seth's character has said and not said, proving he's smarter than he appear's.

Seth Rogen stands out here as well, helped along by great lines and satiric wit. Don't even get me started on Red. He's like a cockroach, he can't be killed.

My favorite scene would have to be when they are in the wood's and freaking out over the forest creature's they think are waiting to get them. It was so hilarious I cried from laughing. But, I won't spoil it.

Best comedy I've seen in years. Recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars Funniest Movie I've Seen In A Long Time, December 5, 2008

By	Gladys Finkelstein "Zoologist" (Columbus, Oh) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Pineapple Express (Single-Disc Unrated Edition) (DVD)

Saw this movie in the theater, and it was funny the whole way through. In my opinion, it wasn't like a normal pot movie, where people that don't smoke wouldn't enjoy it, it is funny for pretty much anyone. It's stupid funny sometimes, dark humor other times, smart and stupid, action and drama (a little bit), but all around hilarious. I laughed so hard I cried, and I felt it for days after--quite the ab workout! Definitely worth the money!
