If you have not seen this fantastic movie stoned you are missing out. Myself and a good friend shared a joint of New Zealand's Finest out back of the theatre. We then ventured in. We were on top of our game as we had purchased the tickets prior. As we walked in to the movie I got scared and went straight in to the cinema. But my good man Stweve(As he is known) Went for the munchies with popcorn in hand we took our seats about 4 rows from the front. This is always the best place for a stoner as you can slump down in your seat so no one can see you.
I must say the stuff we had was good as the trailers prior to the movie were nearly but not as funny as. Then the movie started. It was good. great even.
The movie story line is about a man and his dealer and they get the ever elluring Pinapple Express pot. What a great name huh. They then create an amazing joint which is like a cross and has 3 ends to light. Genius. Rogan then parks up to have a smoke on his way home as you do and witness's a murder of an asian dude. They see him and he goes back to Franco. From there it is a mixed bag of escapes, smoking, shootings and police car chases. The end however unrealistic is good.
It was good. great even. Seth Rogan seems to have been born for his roles in this type of movie. That curley hair and pot(shibby) belly suit the roles well.
From what I remember of the movie there were great stoner breaks. If you are unsure of what I mean a stoner break is when there is a random scene that does not make much sence to the story line but if you are stoned it is close to the coolest thing you have seen all day. :-)
James Franco(spiderman dude) was also good in the role. He has not done many movies like this that I know but really suited the role and made it different to the usual cast.
The underground Pot farm set up by the military to see the effects of pot was great as well. Even better when it goes up in flames. Imagine that............ mmmmm... fantastic!
The best song in the movie is Paper Planes by Mia you can check it out here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7sei-eEjy4g
Shibby for now. The next review will be on the best stoner movie of all times. All I will say is Las Vegas. Also let me know what you think of the review.
Dude that is so true. Wicked movie. That song rocks my socks on :-) Shiznit.
ReplyDeletewatchin that movie sober (not stoned) is like watchin a 3D movie withouth the glasses...
ReplyDeleteI've seen that movie 5 times already. It is just a perfection. So many subliminal messages (as hidden messages) in every minutes of this great film!! I like the end, it's where everything get sorted ; but you tell me :
What did happend to his gf? where are they going ? we dont know.
As well, after the farm blows up (yes we was stoned when we walked out, but you're not suppose to know as the audiance :p) with a great song called "I didn't mean to hurt you" by Spiritualized. Awesome !
You know he's talking like a radio guy at the end, when he's in the restaurant. You hear him,but you see pictures of sights and landscapings and it just matches with what he says, as if he was at the radio ; but before in the movie, before they leave eachother, he's saying to Franco that he is "gonna be a great radio guy (...)", and then they leave and that great song by bob marley kicks in :)
Mann if you wanted to understand that whole movie, watch it stone as, have a sesh while its playing, and of course dont pass out. watch that movie 3-4 times at least, that how you can just enjoyyy it.
for ex; did you think soul and his gf were gonna come back together? when he calls her for the second time, crying his tears out? its ment to make you believe they will.
It is a stoner movie. made by stoners too (or the greatest imagination in the producer's head :P)
