get 'em high

pineapple express--
let the judd apatow backlash officially begin. i can appreciate the talents of those in his clan, yet four of his last five productions have been crap. including this one. on the plus side, james franco fully embodies his ever-baked drug dealer, and seth rogen has some clever enough moments (delivering dialogue that He wrote). i Do feel that a good stoner movie should go for broke, yet this one rarely elicits more than a chuckle. it is overflowing with adventurous cliche-silly action shtick--something you don't see too often in this sub-genre--and incessant shouting & fighting.
chuckle: 1 star
