Having taken different paths in life, Harold and Kumar meet after a long time only to find themselves, again, in a pickle.
Funny, insulting to everyone, and truthful to the franchise. I’ll be short and to the point. The narrative remains the same: The situation calls for Harold and Kumar to reunite, to go through one hell of an adventure where everyone gets high as a kite, wreaking havoc, and in the end, everyone to live happily ever after. Rough Mexican in-laws, the Russian mob, an animated killer snowman, kids on drugs, Santa Claus, and Neil Patrick Harris are but a few stops in Harold and Kumar’s journey. Kal Penn and John Cho make a great duet, and as with the rest of the films, they offer the smiles we need in times like these, especially this season. Neil Patrick Harris always nails it, and his comeback is very welcome. Patton Oswalt, Elias Koteas, and Danny Trejo are also great additions, as they are both highly charismatic thespians and even though they show up just a little, they make all the difference in the world.
If you are sensitive to political correctness, don’t watch it. Watch something that does not intend to insult race, sexual orientation, or religion. On the other hand, watch it if you want to moan about how insulting and inappropriate it is. Todd Strauss-Schulson’s A Very Harold and Kumar Christmas 3D comes unapologetically after everyone and everything. Easily digestible and highly enjoyable. And as a wise man once said, if only quality sold, we wouldn’t have fast food.
