I caught this Movie last night completely by chance. one of those 3am nothing to choose from type of things. How bad could it be amirite?
Not to bad at all as it turned out.
The plot is basically a jumbled subversion of stories from the book of Genesis, with Jack Black as the village idiot who believes he is the chosen one after eating from the "forbidden tree". Joining him on the quest is Michel Cera as some guy whos name I cant remember but who has the same female problems Cera had in "Nick and Norah's infintie playlist." The first scene with Cain and Abel was one of the best parts of the movie imo.
The comedy isnt spectacular but then except for Craig Phillip Robinson there wasnt anything to remarkabale about Pineapple Express and yet people throw it up there on the top of every fucking stoner list. At least in Year one there is a slight and possibly cautionary message related to religion and belief.
Comedic Value 3/5
Watch it while visiting Amsterdam 4/5
Just Watch it 3/5
