Editorial Review:
From the director of Dude, Where's My Car? comes another crazed tale of two friends on a perilous quest--in this case, to eat burgers at the fast food restaurant White Castle. The pair--repressed Harold (John Cho, Better Luck Tomorrow) and freewheeling Kumar (Kal Penn, Love Don't Cost a Thing)--get extremely high and set off on the road, only to be sidetracked by skateboarding hooligans, racist cops, an inbred tow truck driver, and Neil Patrick Harris--yes, Doogie Howser, M.D. The humor is all over the map, and it would be nice if there were one female character who wasn't a caricature, but Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle has a loose, gregarious charm, and the movie's canniness about the cliches of the buddy-movie genre give it a sneaky subversive feel--just the fact that neither of the heroes is white puts a different spin on just about every circumstance. Surprisingly clever, cheerfully stupid. --Bret Fetzer

Rating:  - Images of an Ivy League "Cheech & Chong"
The performance of "Freak Show" is worth the price of admission, outstanding !!!
I really thought the character actor George C. Scott had been resurrected and clothed in a halloween costume. I was mesmerized by Christopher Meloni's performance ,,, funny, scary, jaw dropping ,,, totally believable.
But ,,, I would have appreciated it if they would have fired-up a few more joints ,,, just for me :-)

Before I delve into this review I want to state that my film tastes tend to run towards foreign films, especially Japanese and French, and independent films, however, sometimes I do enjoy a good lowbrow film every now and then including such flicks as Adam McKay's Talladega Nights, Larry Charles's Borat, and any film by Kevin Smith. With this in mind, I was fully prepared, and really wanted to; enjoy Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle, but, in the end, the film left me a bit cold.

This was not a movie I thought I'd like, and when I hear it talked about, I'm surprised I did, but there it is.
Why do I like this movie? Profound? Not superficially. Funny? Oh yes. Filled with life lessons? Hardly. But historic nevertheless.
For many of the actor's generation, the history may be lost. To baby boomer Asian Americans such as myself, a movie with two unashamedly Asian American stars that isn't primarily about their race and immigrant history (thogh Kal Penn ... Read More
Rating: - So wrong it's right - didn't expect to laugh so much
First of all, I'm not a stoner, and I'm a woman, and I don't think I'm supposed to like this movie - but I do. It is an off the wall adventure of two unlikely heroes who only want to get to a table at White Castle and enjoy hamburgers while high. It's not a family film in any way and if you're easily offended - this movie is not for you. If you're up for a raunchy, pushing all the limits ride - buckle up and hold on. This one had me shocked, awed and laughing the entire time.
