Next summer, the guys who brought you Superbad reunite for the action-comedy Pineapple Express. Lazy stoner Dale Denton (Seth Rogen) has only one reason to visit his equally lazy dealer Saul Silver (James Franco): to purchase weed, specifically, a rare new strain called Pineapple Express. But when Dale becomes the only witness to a murder by a crooked cop (Rosie Perez) and the city's most dangerous drug lord (Gary Cole), he panics and dumps his roach of Pineapple Express at the scene. Dale now has another reason to visit Saul: to find out if the weed is so rare that it can be traced back to him. And it is. As Dale and Saul run for their lives, they quickly discover that they're not suffering from weed-fueled paranoia; incredibly, the bad guys really are hot on their trail and trying to figure out the fastest way to kill them both. All aboard the Pineapple Express.
Rush Hour meets Pulp Fiction. Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg, the writing team behind Superbad, re-unite with uber-producer Judd Apatow for this outrageous Comedy about a stoner and his dealer who run afoul of a drug baron.
The film is directed by David Gordon Green (All the Real Girls). The screenplay is by Seth Rogen & Evan Goldberg from a story by Judd Apatow and Seth Rogen & Evan Goldberg. Judd Apatow and Shauna Robertson produce.

Review:
Cleverly scripted, Pineapple Express takes you on journey that you could only imagine. This film can be appreciated by everyone on varying levels. Brilliant portrayal of a misguided pot smoker whose vivid imagination gets them into the most extreme trouble.
