Just seen it via the seefilmfirst website, I enjoyed it, very funny and it surprised me a lot of action and comedy from start to finnish.

Bascially its about weed, drug dealers and friendship.
 
Just got back from this. It was amazing! Funny from start to finish with ridiculous action sceens that had me in stitches. Very Shaun of the Dead esque with a different storyline.

Highly recommend it to anyone who likes a laugh. :)
 
It looks like the usual 'witness a crime, get caught by the corrupt cops committing the crime, try to tell the good cops about the bad cops doing the crime, nobody believes you' with a weed twist.

I saw it monday with seefilmfirst and it was kinda of funny but by and large it was dull. I got the impression that everyone in the cinema was glad they didn't pay to see it.

I would recommend it to my friends.
 
Saw it a couple of weeks ago in the states and thought it was hilarious. Agree with the above, Seth Rogen is awesome.
 
James Franco made this film for me, he was awesome in it.

His line when getting shuffled to go down the hole in the floor "hey what's down there, a ****in rancor?" had me in stitches, yet no one else laughed :(
 
Saw this at the beginning of the year as a customer feedback screening, dull and boring. Even though we didn't pay, my mates and I still felt cheated.
 
Thought James Franco was excellent, Seth Rogen was just Seth Rogen, if youve ever seen him in anything you wont be surprised much by his performance. I thought the film started out well, the police chase was great and it had some genuinely funny moments. The action sequences were just dull, uninspired and served only to stretch the film out a bit.

Worst based on what I have seen, I wouldn't bother to watch Epic Movie or it's brethren ;)

To balance it out, a different movie I also saw a early screening of, How To Lose Friends And Alienate People, is probably the funniest movie I have seen in my adult life.

It should be out next month :)
 
Saw this last night, loved it. Whole cinema was laughing all the way through. Judging by comments here it's a marmite film, if it appeals to your sense of humour you'll think it's great. If your missing your funny bone you'll find it boring and random.

There isn't only one type of funny you know? :p

Semi-Pro was stupidish humour, and I laughed a bunch of times at that, ditto with Super Troopers.

I just found the genre mix messy, the acting contrived, Rogan was exactly the same character he has been in EVERY movie, and the overall feel seemed to rely too heavily on that the fact that they were stoners, as if that's insta-lulz.

Harold & Kumar already proved that concept wrong. ;)

yeah it's interesting, you get to 'hear' everyones personalities around you. i would say there was two or three times i laughed out loud with only a few others.

i gave it a 6/10. though knocked up was better. long silly fights and gun battles don't really do it for me. still worth watching though :)

How the hell do you get in on all these advanced screenings? I want in!
 
Wow this was funny - surprising as I just havent seen a decent comedy for ages (since Forgetting Sarah Marshall) so this was a breath of fresh air :sic:...

ps3ud0 :cool:
 
didnt think it was going to be my sort of thing, and i suppose it wasnt but it did have me laughing out loud in places and overall i rated it as odd but enjoyable, both me and my mate came out feeling a little bit high as well, which was a first for a film. It's different enough to be worth a watch, but it is targetted at a level, seth rogen fans will like it, but as others have said i thought franco made the film
