Pineapple Express

A process server and his drug dealer go on the run from hitmen and a corrupt police officer when he accidentally witnesses a murder.

The chemistry between Seth Rogen and James Franco works - well. And this has to be Franco's one finest hours. He shines as the hippy drug dealing Saul Silver. We're taken on a ride as Rogen and Franco haplessly try to escape their pursuers while mostly high as kites.

While there are only a few laugh out loud moments the movie is HIGHLY enjoyable. Easy to watch. And the running gag which involves their indestructible friend 'Red' (Danny McBride) is really funny.

Overall a fun movie to watch especially at 4:20

David Mills (Brad Pitt) and William Somerset (Morgan Freeman) are two detectives who become embroiled in a case involving several sadistic murders.

Deeply disturbing to watch, yet compelling. The kind of movie that stays with you for days. You try to shake it off but it won't go. You may even dream about it.

An absolutely brilliant film that'll you hate to watch but love at the same time.
