Review of Harold & Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay (2008) by Danc — 28 Jan 2009
Where the original was fresh, funny, and clever, the sequel is anything but. The reliance on pathetic and not-funny toilet humor is sad and off-putting. The misogyny is in full bloom, and not in a funny or clever way.
Glimpses of what the movie could have been come from the hilarious scenes with Neil Patrick Harris, proving once again that he belongs in a class by himself, and the good-natured final montage in Amsterdam.
The final montage captures all the goofy and sweet comedic energy that this movie could have had, but totally missed. A major disappointment.
