A very funny movie. It's kinda bizarre. It's about two guys who only want to get some burgers. It's like "Dude, where's my car?".

This is one of those movies that is more about the bits inside then the movie on a whole, a lot like the old Cheach and Chong Movies like Up in Smoke. If you like those, you'll like this, If your stuck up on being PC in everything, then you won't.

Not as good as everyone says, it was kind of stupid at some times, and I did not entirely get the plot from the movie, it was very weird and I did not quite enjoy what was going on. I think that the movie lack of a lot of things around it, and that it was not certainly something special.

A hilarious movie with memorable characters like "Freakshow", wildly funny scenes like Princeton and it shows how fun a simple trip to a burger joint can be. The cop scenes are damn funny too, and Neil Patrick Harris is very funny, although it's ironic with him chasing "fur burgers" and dancing with naked ladies on top of a car when in reality he's actually gay Still, a great movie.

This movie is really great. The best part is the NPH stuff. He's a crazy guy and his lines were priceless. Freakshow- I still can't believe that's Christopher Meloni.. He's hilarious. There were quite a few scenes in this movie that made me laugh out loud and I can't wait to see the sequel.

Number 1 stoner film

This is the most hilarious movie about stoners I have ever seen. It was smart for them to pick white castle cause it would be stupid to pick a mcdonalds cause they are everywhere. Whoever did the casting is a genius. The writer is also a genius. I have to admit when I first saw the comercials for this I didn't think it was going to be as good as it was. VH1 should make a when Harold and Kumar ruled the world.

  Harold and Kumar share a quality the overgrown adolescents in films like this are never allowed to possess: They're witty, focused, and highly aware. They make having a brain look hip.

  Gleefully upends expectations and delivers an energetic comedy tracing two guys'all-night search for the perfect White Castle burger.

  Smart, goofy and endearing, Cho and Penn make a terrific team, and the fact that they're starring in their own movie suggests that, in the Hollywood comedy frat house, there's finally room for everyone.

  A peppy, satisfying comedy that could soon become a minor classic

  Will seem a classic if you're stoned, and only slightly less funny if you're straight.

  You don't just root for Harold and Kumar to get the girl, get the weed, and, above all, get the burger – you want to hang out with them while they' doing it, and see if they'e free next Friday night, too.

  Penn's Kumar could become Jeff Spicoli for the generation of college kids who've never seen "Fast Times at Ridgemont High" but always seem to have a copy of "Dude, Where's My Car?" cued up at a moment's notice.

  I laughed often enough during the screening of Harold & Kumar that afterward I told Dann Gire, distinguished president of the Chicago Film Critics' Assn., that I thought maybe I should rent "Dude, Where's My Car?" and check it out.

  This stoner buddy movie is filled with raunchy, gross-out humor. It's immature, clunky and probably the best bit of groundbreaking social commentary we've seen in years.

  Winds up a sweetly nonchalant and excellently unwhiny allegory of seeking and gaining entry to the Caucasian fortress that is present-day America, or at least nocturnal New Jersey.

  A blissfully silly, character-driven road movie with impressive laugh-per-minute performance specs.

  That Cho and Penn are such likable actors and are so funny in their roles earns the movie more slack than it probably deserves and prevents it from being just another gross-out comedy.

  In their formidable quest for junk food, Harold and Kumar end up redefining what the all-American protagonists of Hollywood movies should look like - and prove this comedy is not quite as brain-dead as it originally appeared.
