In drug-addled 'Pineapple Express,' there's a lot to take in Aug 6, 2008
His customer and sort-of best friend is Dale Denton (Rogen), a teddy-bear burn-out who has an actual job (process server) and girlfriend (a high school beauty played by Amber Heard, whom the movie introduces, then mostly ignores). The first 20 minutes coast along on the fumes of Rogen's established likability and the surprise of seeing Franco playing Sean Penn's role from "Fast Times at Ridgemont High." The dialogue consists of amusingly stoned riffage fed by a deep love of junk nostalgia: Eddy... (Boston Globe)
