I love comedies, I love Judd Apatow, and I love Seth Rogen.

But I have very little desire to see this movie, and I'm not sure why.

I can't believe David Gordon Green directed that film. That is both awesome and really weird and possibly ill-advised. I will see it on Sunday.

I want to see this. I have a feeling that it may be the best film ever in the action-stoner genre.

I loved this movie. Seth Rogen comes across very believable, likeable, and just real in everything I've seen him in so far. I took some very staunch non-stoners to it and they even dug it.

This movie surprised me. I thought it would be another stoner comedy with surprisingly deep characters, but instead it turned into a balls out action movie parody. It actually shocked me a bit, but it turned out the action scenes were the funniest parts.

I wouldn't put it up there with Apatow's best, it's up there with the likes of "Superbad". I could also tell they had a blast making this movie.

I want to see this. 40 yo Virgin was one of the funniest movies ever made, and a lot of the major players are involved here.

It's really amazing.

the best part for me is the combat scenes, they display the perfect ability level of the characters.

this movie melds realism with fantastic plot twists amazingly well.

I love this movie. Two friends and I went to go see it one afternoon, and there were five or six other people in the theatre, and us three were the ONLY ones laughing, which made the experiance better.

Very funny movie, funniest I've seen this year along with Step Brothers. I hope Bottle Shock, Tropic Thunder, and Hamlet 2 all live up to the hype.

Tropic Thunder is good. Another comedy flick that uses action and violence as the source of the R-rated humor. It wouldn't surprise me if this becomes the trend, replacing the gross-out comedies for awhile.

Love Pineapple Express! Saw it thrice. Hope to see it again maybe. Best comedy of the summer and I also saw Step Bros thrice and Tropic Thunder (once was more than enough)

It's good, but slow at times. I'd say Tropic Thunder's more entertaining overall.

I couldn't really get into it...I preferred Tropic Thunder. I'm not totally jiving with that "keep talking till something funny materializes in this random conversation" style that's so prevalent in the Apatow movies, though I did like the 40 Year Old Virgin.

So this movie after herbal aroma therapy session.

Very funny movie.

So this movie without the benefit of a prior herbal aroma therapy session.

Still pretty darn funny.

Both times I thought the last scene was unnecessary and would have been stronger if it ended before that.

I freaking loved it. I didn't expect anything when going into the theatre and came out pleasantly (and with hurting sides) suprised. Quite good indeed.
