Pineapple Express (2008)

.
"In case you haven't noticed - which you haven't, 'cause from what I can tell, you don't notice anything ever - we are not very functional when we're high."
A couple of stoners -- process server Dale Denton (Seth Rogen) and his dealer Saul Silver (James Franco) -- are on the run from Ted (Gary Cole), the supplier of the powerful weed Pineapple Express, who is determined to annhilate them because Dale saw Ted murder a man. Ted sends his two goons (Kevin Corrigan, Craig Robinson) in search of the pair.

Also appearing are Rosie Perez as a corrupt cop; Amber Heard as Dale's underage girlfriend Angie; Ed Begley Jr. and Nora Dunn as Angie's parents; Danny McBride as Red the snitch; Cleo King as the high school's police liaison officer; and Bill Hader in the opening as a 1930s soidier who is used by the government for secret pot smoking studies.

Twenty years ago, Cheech and Chong would have starred in this film. Overall, pretty dumb -- but also some wickedly funny bits.

Screeplay by Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg, and based on a story by the two of them plus Judd Apatow. Directed by David Gordon Green.
