Puffs Puffs... I feel like a piece of butter slowly melting in the hot embrace of a pancake..."
The film tells the story of an ordinary man Dale Denton. He has a job as a bailiff, has a girlfriend who is much younger than him and is in school, and in his spare time he likes to smoke the weed he takes from his supplier Saul Silver. These are the two that will be discussed.
Immediately it is worth saying that the screenwriter and producer of the film is Jude Appatow and therefore we see many actors who migrated from his previous works.
The role of Dale’s character is played by Seth Rogan, whom we are used to seeing in such comedies and here he coped well with his role. The main surprise was to see James Franco, who used to play serious characters, here he acted as an eternally stoned drug dealer, which was unexpected.
Pineapple Express is one of the best comedies of 2008. Humor is very subtle, not for everyone, although not without toilet jokes. One of the most striking moments, besides the foot in the windshield, can be considered a fight in the house. But in addition to humor, there are also chases and shootings. Take a look and you won’t regret your time.
