Editorial Reviews

On their flight to Amsterdam Harold and Kumar are mistaken for terrorists and sent to Guantanamo Bay... but not for long. They bust out and go on a cross-country road trip to clear their names and win over their hotties! But first they'll have to outsmart the Feds outrun the Klan and enlist the help of a hallucinating Neil Patrick Harris. It's one wild ride with America's most wanted - and most wasted!

Format:DVD
Okay, I heard that this movie was really not funny or it wasn't as good as the original. After just seeing it all I can say is: WRONG ON BOTH COUNTS!

What a pleasant surprise! This film continues the further adventures of two racially stereotyped college students days shortly after their adventures from the first film. However due to Kal Penn's Kumar who just can't live without weed for one second, even though he and best pal John Cho's Harold are headed to Amsterdam where weed is legal in the first place, are caught with a bong on the plane that quickly gets mistaken for a bomb. Enter a racially moronic Federal officer (very funny) played by Rob Corddry, and the two get sent to the famous Guantanamo Bay....

..and by the title of the film alone you'd figure it was all about dealing with life in that prison, dont'cha? Wrong again. That title is misleading because this is another H&K road trip movie, because they're outta the Bay within the movie's first fifteen minutes. The rest of the movie involves getting back to America, encountering tons of stereotypes of race in different ways, saving Kumar's ex from a jerk, and a ton of other very humorous people and things along the way. Don't let the title fool you, there's alot more to this movie than a remake of "Let's Go To Prison".

Now I wasn't that huge of a fan of the first movie other than thinking it was okay at best, but Bay beats it by leaps and bounds. I must have laughed twenty to thirty good times watching it. And with the disc I choose the Unrated version and for a comedy, this one really, really pushes the limit on that term. There's some scenes in it I can't believe would be allowed on any Family Superstore's shelf. And believe me, it ain't all pot jokes either, and in fact I felt that got downplayed for other funny subjects quite well here.

So look, this movie isn't the Animal House or Up In Smoke of this generation in overall quality but bottom line, it's very funny. I couldn't believe a sequel to a movie that didn't blow me away the first time could make me laugh like this one and I didn't roll my eyes in bad-joke despair not once here. It is NOT as bad as some have made it out to be and I feel it's about time we can all laugh at each others cultural differences in film again without truly being hurtful. Definitely worth a view/rent, and maybe a purchase when both films are maybe sold together. Glad to see Harold & Kumar back, see you two again in Part III.

4.0 out of 5 stars No Habeas for Harold and Kumar September 9, 2008
Format:DVD
This movie was far better than I expected it to be. The critics did not give it its just desserts largely because of its use of many of the same themes and gags from their first movie, i.e., a supposed lack of originality. I disagree. The sequel builds on and successfully uses what it created in the first movie. It is essentially about how bad things constantly happen to two well-meaning but chemically challenged bunglers, who despite their many flaws, are the good guys in the movie. It is underrated as a satire as it pokes fun at the sheer boneheadedness of those responsible for such moral and legal travesties as Gitmo, instead of simply portraying them as wrong. It is ultimately meant to be funny, not a political lesson, however, and it usually achieves its goal, although it does rely more on the use of nudity and graphic "shock and awe" techniques than the previous movie. I disagree with those characterizing it as advocating drug use. No one could see how these two goofballs screw up their lives (such as getting sent to Gitmo because of Kumar's hi-tech bong) and rationally want to emulate them, anymore than watching a trainwreck would make one want to be in one. It is satirical slapstick that is both funny and ultimately goodhearted as it drives home the inner goodness of its unlikely heroes after they find two strong women to help straighten-out the messes they have created of their lives!

5.0 out of 5 stars Sequel is even better. September 8, 2008
Format:DVD
Ok so it is sort of a guy's movie. I, however, am female, but still LOVED this movie.

I really enjoyed the first one, and the second (Guantanamo) is far funnier. I rarely buy movies (since I don't usually watch them more than once) but I bought this one.

Not really for those with weak stomachs. Also, Neal Patrick Harris's cameo in this - incredibly enjoyable.

Rent it first, but seriously, if you liked the first one, you'll LOVE this one.

I <3 Kal Penn.

Every Harold and Kumar movie are classics, this one i not better than the first, but it is close. Rob Cordry kills in his role and again Neil Patrick Harris delivers.

5.0 out of 5 stars I was pleasantly surprised by this DVD.
It was very humorous and entertaining. The way the actors portrayed their characters was terrific. The humor was sort of far fetched but funny. I will watch many times.

might be humorous to teenage boys; they'll certainly enjoy the nudity. Nothing of value in this for a sober, 40-year old woman.

4.0 out of 5 stars Yeah!
Better than White Castle, IMO. It's crude and nasty and hilarious. Love the Miami Vice style party/car scene and the backwoods inbreeder couple with the swank crib. And Amsterdam. Read more

This is marginally even better than the first Harold & Kumar. Absolutely hilarious and good-natured fun.

Neil Patrick Harris again makes an awesome appearance. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars What can be funnier than Harold and Kumar?
If you love comedy, and goofy comedies at that you will love Harold and Kumar. H&K Goes to Whitecastle is still my favorite but this is a close second. Get it, it's laugh riot!
