Dale Denton et Saul Silver n'ont vraiment rien en commun, sauf le Délire Express, une variété très rare de marijuana que Saul vend à Dale. Une nuit, ce dernier est témoin d'un meurtre commis par une redoutable baron de la drogue et sa complice dans la police. Sous le coup de la panique, il abandonne son herbe sur la scène du crime... Alors que cet indice conduit directement à eux, Dale et Saul n'ont pas d'autre choix que de s'enfuir pour sauver leur vie. Ils vont vite découvrir que leur paranoïa n'est pas uniquement due à ce qu'ils fument : des tueurs déchaînés prêts à tout les pourchassent réellement pour les éradiquer. Le point positif ? Ils peuvent devenir amis... s'ils survivent. (texte officiel du distributeur)

"Vous venez d'être tué par une Daewoo Lanos, fils de pute !" - la seule réplique qui m'a fait rire à voix haute. Une affaire étonnamment peu drôle pour une production apatowienne. Et non pas parce que je ne comprends pas l'humour vulgaire, ni parce que les joints ne vont pas bien dans la bouche de Rogen et Franc et les fusils à pompe dans les mains de McBride ; mais parce que ce scénario est une naissance douloureuse mot pour mot.

Ingenious, madcap hodgepodge. We’ve all seen stoned nut-jobs before, but they were never this nice or this funny. Rogen and Franco have no trouble entertaining us and the twists were obviously written by stoners. A myriad of unbelievable characters, an awesome chase with a foot in a window and a really bloody finale that looks like Vietnam with all that grass. Just more consistent dosage is lacking, otherwise great.

An outstanding cast, a couple of side-splitting scenes, an excellent opening half hour and corners of the mouth lifting here and there for the rest of the movie. But what good is not taking itself seriously and spot on mockery of buddy action pictures when it backfires due to unnecessary length. Just a classic project from Apatow production studios. Cutting twenty minutes wouldn’t have done any good in the end. To make things better, it would need at least twice as much material on the cutting room floor. Including the action finale which is like out of a completely different movie. Which wouldn’t matter if it had been a good movie. But that wasn’t the case. Plus it’s d-r-a-w-n--o-u-t so much that it dethrones the Return of the King with its never-ending stream of endings. The Rogen, Franco and Robinson trio simply doesn’t have a chance to pull the Pineapple Express along, however hard they try. Clouds of marihuana smoke can’t hide everything. And not even smoking a “Christmas time" joint before switching on.

Seth Rogen had a good idea here, but the film itself doesn't deliver more than what the trailers show. It's a pot-filled adventure with all the trappings, which also ends up in the waters of action flicks that it dares to reference. On the one hand, it's great that the concept of total absurdity on a relatively real plot works, but on the other, it's a fact that a more significant intervention from the editor wouldn't have hurt. In particular, the morning breakfast at the end is really idiotic. Regardless, Rogen and Franco are the absolute top of the pot smoker genre. 3 ½.

A few scenes are ridiculously funny (the apartment brawl, the car chase), and even the rest isn't bad. The film is nevertheless unnecessarily long and because of the action finale, eventually the whole sort of fades out into nothing. It’s too bad, but I actually still had a good time, plus I have to appreciate that it did without including most body fluids.
