Guys look, we found a fog machine!
Let me say right now, this movie is up against some steep competition. First of all, with
The Dark Knight still in theaters and becoming more valuable by the day than many small, island countries, it's hard to consider going to see anything else. Secondly, this movie has some big shoes to fill in the 'weed comedy' department.
Cheech and Chong's Up in Smoke, Half Baked, Dazed and Confused, Harold & Kumar go to White Castle, and even
Super Troopers (which is more of a cop humor movie, but still plays the weed element excellently) have all made lasting impressions on the big screen, and rank up pretty well on my personal list of favorite movies. Does
Pineapple Express have what it takes to stand out as a solid weed movie?
You better believe it.
Now, I don't want you to confuse me with someone who tosses out good compliments at a movie just because it's "expected to be good". Aside from the majority of compliments received, I did receive a few death threats regarding my review for the much anticipated
Hancock. So when a movie comes out starring and written by the funny
Seth Rogen, produced and partially written by
Judd Apatow as well as
Evan Goldberg from
Knocked Up and
Superbad fame, is it expected to be good? Naturally, but as any 2007 Patriots fan can tell you, always remember that success is never automatically guaranteed by what you have on paper.
