Pineapple Express
Synopsis: Ride high on the Pineapple Express, the outrageously hysterical blockbuster from Judd Apatow, the director and screenwriter of Knocked Up. A lazy stoner (Seth Rogen) is the sole witness to a murder by an evil drug lord (Gary Cole) and the corrupt cop (Rosie Perez). Marked for death, he runs for his life, dragging his dazed dealer (James Franco) and his supplier (Danny McBride) with him on a hilarious smokin' adventure.
Cast: Seth Rogen, James Franco, Gary Cole, Rosie Perez, James Remar, Danny R. McBride, Amber Heard, Craig Robinson, Ken Jeong
Recommendations: It's a comedy and it's actually funny. Turns out Pineapple Express was way better than what I thought it would be and I wouldn't mind watching it over again.
Buy it: Pineapple Express on Amazon (Also available on Blu-ray)
