Pineapple Express

Completely silly but so much fun. So many funny lines. So many absurd situations. I don't care how many Apatow Factory movies I see - I like them all. This is no Superbad or anything even if it shares a very similar story structure of male bonding but I still liked it a lot.

James Franco, Danny McBride, Craig Robinson, Seth Rogen are all so good in this. Plus the Ed Begley scene was hilarious. Would I have wanted a little more comedy and a little less sprawling action scenes? I guess, but the action scenes are part of the silliness. I loved the stoner wrap up at the end so they could remind themselves of what actually happened. Danny McBride is friggin' hilarious and makes me want to see All the Real Girls again. I loved the Godspeed You Black Emperor! and the Shins line. And I've fully come around to being a big fan of the Huey Lewis song.
