A Very Harold & Kumar 3D Christmas

  • Title: A Very Harold & Kumar 3D Christmas
  • IMDB: link

a-very-harold-and-kumar-3d-christmasAfter growing apart in recent years Harold (John Cho) and Kumar (Kal Penn) are brought back together for one more magical night of crazed debauchery. Harold now has a wife (Paula Garcés), a job on Wall Street, and a host of in-laws led by his intimidating father-in-law (Danny Trejo). Kumar, on the other hand, is still spending his days getting high without a job, a girlfriend, or a care in the world.

A trip to Harold’s to drop off a Christmas package begins a night of miracles (okay, more like impossibly contrived sequences and funny bits). These involve the horny daughter (Jordan Hinson) of a gangster (Elias Koteas), a baby on drugs, a nifty robot that makes waffles, the search for the perfect Christmas tree, Santa Claus (Richard Riehle), and a reunion with their woman-obsessed pal Neil Patrick Harris.

The third entry to the franchise is more of the same with some elaborate raunch and quite a bit of pot smoking. Some of the jokes work, some don’t, and one especially (and homage to A Christmas Story) is sure to make you wince.

Bad Movie

  • Title: Bad Teacher
  • IMDB: link

bad-teacher-dvdI like Cameron Diaz. I enjoyed Bad Santa. Hell, I even like Summer School. However, I don’t like all those ingredients thrown into a blender with the barest attempt at originality and the lack of any real laughs.

If you take Billy Bob Thornton‘s character from Bad Santa and put him into Mark Harmon‘s role from Summer School, then make him an aging blonde hottie obsessed with getting a boob job and tricking some rich dullard into marriage you have the script for Bad Teacher, not just the premise mind you, the entire script.

Writers Gene Stupnitsky and Lee Eisenberg (the comedic geniuses who are responsible for Year One) waste another talented cast by phoning in yet another suprisingly unfunny comedy. If you know how these guys continue to get work please let me know. (I’m guessing that must have some incriminating pictures of several studio heads.)
