Harold & Kumar
go to White Castle (2004)
Written by Rick Mauer

A ridiculously stupid movie, but I loved every minute of it. It's
pretty much everything you'd expect in a stupid comedy. Drugs,
naked chicks, nothing making sense, and even the scene where a
character inevitably gets stuck in the bathroom while someone
else is taking a massive dump.
All the
movie is about is Harold and Kumar get stoned one night, get the
munchies and, after seeing a commercial, decide they have to have
White Castle and will settle for nothing less. Of course, on the
way, a whole bunch of shit goes wrong and they run into a bunch
of different people and have a bunch of wacky adventures. |

There's a good bit of
racial humour in the movie, but it's all in good fun and nothing
is offensive in that sense. A lot of the humour is over the top,
and it comes about in what are some pretty much ridiculous situations
that would never happen, that's why I refer to a lot of things
in the movie as ‘stupid'. They go too far a few times, and things
become just too dumb to even laugh at, but for the most part,
I got some good chuckles in. One thing that should be commended
is that they were able to get a lot of funny stuff in without
making a lot of raunchy sex jokes. Of course, that doesn't mean
it's a safe one for little kids, because there's quite a bit of
profanity.

I think
it's really hard to give a good review on a comedy movie. Different
people laugh at different things, and sometimes it depends on
your mood. I'm sure a lot of people will find the movie to be
just too stupid. It's not a timeless classic comedy like the original
Dumb and

| Dumber, and you're certainly not missing anything if you don't
catch this film. However, it is a solid good time when you're watching
it, and I found myself slipping ‘balls' into my sentences with a
bit of regularity after watching it. If you're just up for a little
bit of stupid fun, this is a good movie to rent. |
