Along the way we get all sorts of short vignettes that include the duo running into some racist jerks, getting attacked by a raccoon, having to put up with some girls with diarrhea problems and they even run into Neil Patrick Harris hitchhiking. The film doesn't really have much of a story with the exception that our two heroes are stoned, have the munchies and have to drive to a White Castle. I mean, after all it's just another stoner comedy mixed in with a road picture but Cho and Penn are so good in their parts that you can't help but laugh at each adventure the duo find themselves in. HAROLD & KUMAR GO TO WHITE CASTLE certainly isn't anything original. The stoner comedy has been going on for quite a while now and each film that deals with potheads have the same jokes but for some reason when you have the right actors in the parts things just work no matter how many times you've seen it. Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle (2004) *** (out of 4) Stoner pals Harold (John Cho) and Kumar (Kal Penn) smokes some good weird and get a craving for some White Castle so they head out for the restaurant but instead run into one issue after another.
