DVD Reviews of Pineapple Express (Single-Disc Unrated Edition)
DVD Review: One of the funniest movies in years
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie delivers non-stop laughs throughout and should really be given a chance by everyone. I didn't think I'd like it because of the characters and some of the material, but it's a really great film. DVD Review: This is funnier than 3 stars
Summary: 4 Stars
I'm kind of surprised the avg. for this movie isn't higher. I think it's definitely funnier than 3 stars. I suspect the subject matter turns off some people. However, if you can get past that, it's essentially a kind of sweet buddy film with laughs that range from amusing to laugh out loud--the latter mostly supplied by Franco and McBride. Franco is wonderfully ditzy as the drugged-out stoner, and he has some great lines. In fact, you really have to watch it more than once to catch all the funny lines and little pieces of business from the principals. Rogen is sort of the straight man in this, but he really anchors the film. I think the film is elevated by director David Gordon Green and his team, including McBride. I generally don't care for chase scenes, but this has one that's silly and exciting. Don't look for logic in the script--just chill and enjoy the ride.
Note: Must listen to the audio commentary from Rogen, Green, Apatow, Franco, McBride, et. al. Worth the cost of the DVD alone.
DVD Review: Pineapple Express = Stoner Shooter/Action/Comedy!
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie is one of my favorite movies. Technically a comedy, there is still plenty of action to go with the laughs.
Stoner Dale (Seth Rogen) witnesses a murder. In a panic he runs to his drug dealer Saul (James Franco) and the hilarious caper begins as the two must stay one step ahead of murderous drug dealers and crooked cops. Many hilarious moments and memorable quotes.
DVD Review: Downtown Morons
Summary: 1 Stars
Go downtown, find two drugged-up bisexual morons, follow them around for 90 minutes, and you'll have the same experience as if you had watched ths film.DVD Review: 5 Stars for Rogen and Franco.
Summary: 5 Stars
What a great film. This is a great bromantic comedy/action movie that will keep you laughing and in suspense at the same time. Seth Rogen and James Franco team up once again just like in old times with "Freaks and Geeks" to deliver one of my favorite movies of time. This is no ordinary stoner movie. It's filled with fun action and great comedy. I'm glad that I was able to get this on DVD because I will be watching it for the rest of my life. If you are thinking about buying it, than just stop thinking and buy it. One of my favorite films of all time.
Description of Pineapple Express (Single-Disc Unrated Edition)
A new comedy from the creative genius of Judd Apatow (40 Year Old Virgin, Knocked Up, Talladega Nights) follows a pair of druggie losers as they reach the top of the hit-list when one witnesses a mob murder and drags his buddy into a crazy flight from mobsters bent on silencing both of them permanently. The film stars new sensation Seth Rogen (Knocked Up, Superbad, 40 Year Old Virgin) and James Franco (Spider-Man 1-3) and it co-stars Rosie Perez (Do The Right Thing) and Gary Cole (The Brady Bunch Movie). Movie is directed by David Gordon Green.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
