Okay. So if you read a little into the trailer, even if it is on TV, you know Pineapple Express is pot. If you didn't I just ruined the movie for you, sorry.
Seriously, do people really have names for all the varieties and flavors and strengths of pot? I mean, it sounds worse than going to a florist trying to find "the right" flowers. You go orchid or roses and you are suddenly *bad word for having sex*ed with a million types of the same damn flower. But I digress.
What I am here to talk about is the movie Pineapple Express, mostly so I can have a review up before Meryl, although I could freeze myself, take a long nap with Walt Disney, and be revived before Meryl got around to her review.
So if you are familiar with this group of guys (40 year old virgin, knocked up, superbad, forgetting sarah marshall) you will recognize a good portion of the supporting cast. It is like watching a Kevin Smith or Adam Sandler or Frat Pack or Wes Anderson (sp?) flick. You will know faces after a few goes. Oh, Coen Brothers too!
The movie follows a bumbling Seth Rogan and a pot dealing James Franco as the ellude the guy and gals out to off them. Friendships, conflicts, and resolution follows as such. The guy that I liked a lot in this movie was Danny McBride a.k.a Red. His character was a little bit weasel, a dash of pathetic, and just a whiff of aerodynamics. He had the largest percentage of funny lines compared to his part as a whole.
The movie did drag in a few spots and took itself either too seriously or not seriously enough at times. These are not seperate times mind you, I am just unsure of the which it is.
my Pineapple Express top 5 is as follows (no particular order):
1. Trunk Clothes
2. BFFF
3. Animal Birthdays
4. Windshields
5. Anal Beads
I hope you have no clue what that means. Unless of course you have seen the film. I would recommend matinee viewing or DVD rental. I may buy this, but not ahead of knocked up (yet to get).
See y'all later
