Two Twenty-something stoner roommates -- one a Korean American investment banker the other an Indian American Medical School candidate --go through life changing journey, as they spend a night roaming the state of New Jersey in search of White Castle hamburgers.
Synopsis
Fun feel good youth comedy with two different heroes.Charming but also outrageous.That Asian guy from American Pie and that Indian guy from Van Wilder team up with that white guy who directed Dude, Where's My Car? The result: Grade A, heavy duty laughs for stoners of all ethnic persuasions.Join the culturally challenged Harold and Kumar as they take a testosterone fuelled road trip across America in search of the elusive nirvana for Frat boy junk food fanatics: The White Castle Burger.Along the way they'll have their manhood tested, their patriotism challenged and their sexual frustration mocked.Not since Cheech & Chong, Wayne & Garth and Bill & Ted has there been such a brilliantly dopey buddy movie. So invite the dudes around, chill out and inhale!

One of the funniest movies i've ever seen and i would certainly watch it again. I admit that i do agree with some of the other reviewer when they say things such as the cheetah part could've been left out and the plot itself i a bit idiotic but who cares? Movies like this aren't supposed to have a fantastic and thrilling plot...its just meant to entertain us for a certain time....good movie filled with laughs worth the look.
this movie is absolutely hilarious! the first time that I saw it I couldnt not contain my laughter! though, i must admit that the humour is a little bit more for teenagers, and possibly the occasional(male) adult, lol. this is a definatley a film that you want your young childrent to be watching. but is is definatley something that I would reccomend to teenagers! great funny film
A surprisingly good stoner comedy about to guys who get high and then have cravings for White Castle burgers, which leads to them spending a whole night going through all sorts of obstacles to get there. Predictable, but still good, Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle is a lot better than Dude, Where's My Car?
This is a great stoner movie, i wasnt keen to see it but saw it on sky movies, it was seriosuly awesome, its just got so many really funny momnets in it, thought the first scene with kumar in it would have to be the best by far, its just so funny, well worth a watch if your into stoner movies, especially jay and silent bob ones
one of the funniest movies i've seen. I would watch this with a bunch of mates and a couple drinks. the adventures of harold and kumar will have you alternating between cringing and laughing. you think wat idiots. then next thought. what legends. would recommend this movie. funny funny funny...
Nothing special, this movie seemed to get cred from the fact that it had two ethic leads instead of the usual white guys. Getting past that the actual story had very little to add that hadn’t been done before. Two stoners go off on an adventure. At least Bill and Ted had a time travel thing going on. What do these guys have? Lame jokes and a trip to a burger restaurant?
This movie can easily be passed off as another idiotic teen comedy, but actually turns out to be better and a bit smarter than you would expect with this genre. Some parts of it are utterly ridiculous (who finds a cheetah in the bushes and thinks riding it is a good idea?) but overall there are some pretty funny moments in here without having to resort to too many petty jokes. Former Doogie Howser MD actor Neil Patrick Harris makes a guest appearance as himself which actually helped him resurrect his career somewhat.
You have to wonder how much the fast food chain White Castle actually paid in advertising dollars to get their name included in the title and as the subject of a movie.
This is a good and funny movie, I can't wait for the sequel. Like a reviewer below me said, it is a stoner film, but you don't have to like stoner films to appreciate this, its not like the others, and its funny anyway. Both the actors did great jobs with their characters and its a really funny movie. I only wish we had white castle here
it had it's lame bits like the stupid cheetah bit which i thought could have been substituted for something else, and a bit out of this world really, i mean this stuff doesnt relaly happen in college incase ur thinking it does, if it did, then u'd be in jail in 10 minutes flat.
ok yeah although i normally never really like watching stoner movies like how high, cheech and chong, or half baked i actually really liked watching this movie. i foun it funny for all the right reasons it had some basic pot humor like 'Man im so stoned" but it also has some very intelligent humor beside that, reminded me a lot of weekends in queen street finding food after being stoned when i was a teen.
