One of the Best Comedies In A While!!

Rating: 10/10 (23 December 2009)

If you thought "Super Bad" was insanely funny, then you haven't seen anything yet!! From that film's producer, Judd Apatow, and the director David Green Wood, comes a comedy that practically equals or even goes beyond "Super Bad". I know some who haven't seen it are probably thinking:" Is that even possible?" Indeed it is, indeed it is. This is first off accomplished by the very nicely done story which Seth Rogen himself helped to right. Gary Cole and Rosie Perez are perfect together as the "bad guys", serving up well done performances.
Besides the villains, the screenplay introduces some very interesting characters. It presents the usual buddy film but it's done so well. Seth Rogen and Danny McBride are laugh out loud hilarious no doubt, but to me the real star is James Franco. It's like he was born to play this role and people like myself fall in love with the character. The "buddy" scenario is just so damn enjoyable in this flick. Some have criticized the film's violence which admittedly at first view had me thinking i was watching some sort of Quentin Tarantino film. But now I've come to realize that despite the fact that it is rather realistic and in the case of the 'ear' situation (lol) pretty gross, it all blends in well with the comedy is really a necessary part of it. In a movie filled with drug lords and hit men, there would naturally be some unfortunate yet funny as hell deaths. Therefore, I can honestly say ''Pineapple Express" is one of my all time favorite comedies.
And Oh yeah, before I forget, "F*ck the police!!". lmfao!! My favorite line in the film no doubt.
