But when Dale becomes the only witness to a murder by a crooked cop (Rosie Perez) and the city's most dangerous drug lord (Gary Cole), he panics and dumps his roach of Pineapple Express at the scene.

As Dale and Saul run for their lives, they quickly discover that they're not suffering from weed-fueled paranoia; incredibly, the bad guys really are hot on their trail and trying to figure out the fastest way to kill them both.

In James Franco’s darkly satiric directorial debut, Harry Walker (played by Franco) is trying to write a novel. It’s supposed to be his ticket to glory, away from the job he hates and his mundane home life, but the whole thing is a complete disaster.
His wife and son are constantly interrupting, his boss won’t get off his back and he can’t seem to get past the first few words. Fed up, he rents an apartment to try to get some time alone... only to discover that a talking, Hawaiian-shirt clad gorilla is living in his midst.
Despite the added distraction of lice, "gorilla wet willies" and flying excrement, "The Ape" pushes Harry to fulfill his dreams - perhaps at the cost of his sanity.
