Naughty, explicit, raunchy, irreverent, and above all, Funny, this latest movie from the Harold and Kumar franchise is full of Christmas cheer. But there is some explicit content, and this is definitely for restricted viewing. There is the extreme hyperbole connected with all Harold and Kumar movies, making you ROFL, which is why this movie is included in our list.
A Very Harold & Kumar 3D Christmas (2011)
Director: Todd Strauss-Schulson
Stars: Kal Penn, John Cho, Neil Patrick Harris
Harold and Kumar have grown apart. Harold is a successful Wall Street executive with a nice house and is married to Maria. Kumar’s flunked out of medical school and has also been dumped by his girl friend. The two meet when Kumar drops off a package at Harold’s door. Then begins the usual crazy set of events. Harold is desperate to find and decorate a 12 ft tree to appease his father in law. Amidst car crashes, drug parties thrown by teenagers, a ‘high’ baby, gangsters, explicit nudity, and a cameo by NPH – Neal Patrick Harris, who is as licentious as ever, Harold and Kumar make up and renew their friendship. And oh yes, Santa gets shot accidentally, and gives the boys a ride.
Kal Penn and John Cho have given their usual effortless performances. This movie can be enjoyed only if you leave reason aside, and get set for a wild ride. This is definitely for ‘big kids’, or adults in case I haven’t been clear enough!
