The Joneses

Extremely original plot populated with phenomenal and very pretty cast. Duchovny and Demi channel real life marital success to give life to lifestyle. Film cleverly reveals the mystery slowly but hits a standstill after that. Too many ideas and too little motivation twist the final act into an unmarketable mess.

Pineapple Express

Franco gives impressive comedic turn while Rogen plays Rogen again. Dialogue is funny but far too self indulgent. Designed so stoners could tune out half the film and not miss anything. Most compelling aspect is refusal to shy away from bloody disturbing violence. Stoned film forgets Heard’s storyline halfway through.
