Harold and Kumar - Escape from Guantanamo Bay

Here comes the second part of the Harold and Kumar series and Iam sure there are more to come.. except that Iam not sure how well sequels always work.. Iam not thinking about any of the movies that came with sequels because some have worked and some have not.. For eg:- Jurassic Park.. the first part of the series so well and it was a craze but the rest of them were a drab.. but personally I loved the Lord of the Rings series.. it will always be my personal favourite..

Now coming to Harold and Kumar's.. I personally loved the first part.. two guys going after a place for burgers.. the throes they go through.. and how they never let go of the desire to get there.. some parts of the movie were really gross.. definitely not for the weak hearted :))

Kal Penn as Kumar is the dude who wants to be eternally stoned.. and John Cho as Harold Lee puts up all the antics of his friend.. it seemed like at the end of it all he also enjoys it.. the movie starts off where it ended last time.. when Harold and Kumar finish off a horde of burgers and they plan to take off to Amsterdam to meet Harold's neighbour whom he feels hes fallen for..

At the airport they bump into Kumar's ex from college, the pretty Paula Garces, who is engaged to be married to the wealthy and influential Colton, played by Eric Winter.. on the flight to Amsterdam, Kumar cannot control his urge for getting stoned and uses his own little invention, the "smokeless bong" but ultimately gets branded as a terrorist with a bomb and are sent back to Washington where they are shipped to the detention camp in Guantanamo Bay.. they manage to escape out of the prison and make their way to Texas to meet Colton.. who double times them and sends them back to prison.. they manage to jump of the plan and crash into a ranch and surprise surprise, they are face to face with none other than the President of the US, Mr.Bush... that part of the movie is really funny where Bush gets stoned as well.. well doesn't he normally look that way.. but finally they do manage to get out of trouble.. screw up the wedding and also manage to knock out Colton, the damn villain.

All in all a great movie, though some part of the movie are really gross.. there is too much of importance given to weed..especially the scene where Kumar dreams about a threesome with Paula and "weed woman".. ewwww.. that was grossssssss.. but if you are a fan of these dudes then go ahead and watch it with out minding these specific parts of the movie.. not that it forms a major part of the movie :)
