Harold and Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay

What It Is: The almost-awesome sequel to the awesome Harold and Kumar go to White Castle.

Why I Watched It: The first one was excellent!

What I Thought: Overall, it was good.

It started a little slow, not so funny, and uncomfortably lewd (like twisting in your seat trying to dodge the obscenity flying at you lewd). Eventually, though, H&K2 managed to settle into a good and funny (if sometimes disturbing) groove.

The absolute coolest thing about the film, is that the plot of H&K2 begins approximately 2.5 minutes after the first movie. How awesome is that? I can't recall a single other sequel that literally continued the plot of the first film like that. It was very cool.

Keep in mind, this movie was funny, but the first movie was AWESOME. It's an important distinction.

Highlights: The "My Dick" song, Doogie's back, and . . . the bottomless party!

Who Should See It: Fans of the first film and of brainless humor in general.

How Soon: Whenever you need an easy if unsettling laugh.
