Pineapple Express (2008)

This has to be by far one of the best comedy movies of 2008 and probably by far one of Seth Rogen's (Knocked Up) best films. Seth stars as Dale Denton, a twenty something pot smoking loser who drives around and dresses up in different disguises to hand out papers to people that don't want them because they could be divorce papers, etc and goes out with a high school senior (Amber Heard). After visiting his friendly drug dealer and snatching up some weed called pineapple express, witnesses a guy who he is supposed to serve papers to murder someone. That guy happens to be Ted Jones (Office Space's Gary Cole), who is the head distributor of marijuana. Ted recognizes his weed and sends his henchman to the middle man named Red (Danny McBride) to find out who he had distributed the weed to. So, Dale heads back to his drug dealer Saul (James Franco), tells him what had happened and the both of them freak out and now it's a cat and mouse game for the rest of the movie. This movie has so many great moments in it and so many unforgettable scenes. I absolutely loved the movie and you have to check this out because I think Seth Rogen is a genius. The movie also stars Rosie Perez (Night On Earth) as the corrupt female cop, Joe Lo Truglio (Beer League) as Mr. Edwards, Craig Robinson (Miss March) as Matheson, Kevin Corrigan (Goodfellas) as Budlofski, and Ed Begley Jr. (Greedy) as Robert. I give this movie an A
