Not even close to the 1st one!
I was such a big fan of the original Harold and Kumar movie, that my ex and I flew across the country to New York to have White Castle burgers and have an adventure of our own. That said, I was terribly disappointed with the sequel. I went to see it on opening night and even tho most of the audience were pre-teens, no one laughed. This movie was missing the witty dialogue, sense of adventure, gut-busting montages, and interesting cast of crazy characters that I loved in the original. Instead there were blatant, idiotic racial stereotypes & dumb jokes that maybe a 10-year-old might enjoy. The magic was lost. The only scene that reminded me of the snappy, outrageous original, was the flashback in which Kumar is an uptight nerd and Harold looked like a goth-Cure wanna be. Unfortunately, that scene was only a few minutes long and the rest was just so lame that I can't believe that it's part of the franchise. Please, SKIP IT!
