Review of harold and Kumar 3-d

Hey folks whats good in your hood? Its christmas time and unlike years past I am doing the holidays up aka shopping and seeing the sights. In one such excursion I saw Harold and Kumars 3D xmas and was pleasently suprised.

As you know or don,t know this is the 3rd in the stoner trilogy in which harold(john cho) and Kumar(former white house staff Kal Penn) and it is in full 3d. When I say full 3d I mean full 3d not a cheap add on like they like to do these days. I knew going in that they said that they went for the gusto on 3d but that was a understatement at no point during this movie I felt like taking my glasses off. I also think that while it made sense where they placed the 3d like it fit with the gag(a bag of coke being exploded and it snowing coke as a white xmas plays for example.) I would say see this in the theatre if you can catch it if only to see 3D done right and have a point of refrence going foward

As far as the story is concerned it involves the pair after a few years of not speaking and harold living in the suburbs in a big house and married and kumar in a shitty apartment doing/living the same way reconnecting to get a tree to replace the burned up one(long story). I think they more or less ran out of ideas for hijinks as this seems pretty low stakes figuring they got locked up in terroist jail last time. It felt like every situation could of been easily avoided which lead to frustration on my part and alot of inner monolouge of "if they did that they wouldnt have a movie" which is never good. I laughed quite a bit despite that fact and Neil Patrick Harris killed it as the drug adddled sexulal predator he plays pitch perfect every time. When his real life partner tempts him with a "big ole bag of crack" I was sold on the whole film despite the lazy hijinks. I would say see it in the cinema for the 3d but see it no matter what as it has enough laughs to hold up a view.
