Pineapple Express plot
"Put this in your pipe and smoke it"
Dale Denton (Seth Rogen), a lazy pot smoker, has only one reason to visit his equally lazy dealer Saul Silver (James Franco): to buy weed, especially the rare 'Pineapple Express'. When he witnesses a murder committed by an unscrupulous cop and the city's most dangerous drug lord, he panics. Frightened, he drops his 'Pineapple Express' joint. This one is so rare that the killers are led directly to Saul and Dale.

Predictable comedy with some nice jokes but above all a lot of predictable jokes about drugs, which are especially very tame.
Furthermore, very predictable roles of Roger and Franco and the film is half an hour too long!

Worthless comedy.
Movies with drugs and protagonists who are stoned as a shrimp usually don't appeal to me, no idea why. Seth Rogen and James Franco spend the entire film screaming, swaying and annoyingly ruining everything. I have to say that I have rarely been able to get a smile on my face, very occasionally that was the case and thanks to Seth Rogen. That was also the only actor I could tolerate in this film, otherwise the word terrible is an understatement.
The story isn't even worth mentioning. Although I do think that in a genre like this this is totally subordinate. In a movie like this, the protagonists need to have a sense of timing when it comes to jokes and pranks and you need to be entertained with absurd situations that have you kicking yourself on the thighs with laughter.
None of this is the case in this film, which in my opinion is a total failure.
With 2* I'm still mild.
