From the crazy and fertile mind of Seth Rogen comes “Pineapple Express”. This is another film to come out of the comedic film factory run by the prolific Judd Apatow. Rogen, who co-wrote and stars, has actually created a new genre of film, the druggie action flick. Seth Rogen plays Dale Denton, a mild-mannered process server. He smokes lots of dope which accounts for his seemingly placid demeanor.

Denton visits his dealer (nice comedic turn by James Franco) Saul Silver. Silver sells Denton some potent marijuana called pineapple express. While going to serve a subpoena on Ted Jones (Gary Cole) Denton witnesses Jones execute an Asian gentleman, who was sent by an Asian gang to take Jones out of the drug trade.
