Previous Harold and Kumar formula plus

The film also stars my own personal hero, Neil Patrick Harris (How I Met Your Mother, Doogie Howser, M.D.), who reprises his role as himself.
A unicorn-riding Harris once again proved he is a god amongst mere men.
While the first Harold and Kumar went mostly for non-sequiturs and stoner jokes, the second added political satire and racism-the humorous kind of racism, not the "go back to where you came from" racism.
Harold and Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay is on par with the first film.
It's different enough, but clearly follows the Harold and Kumar formula.
There was nothing disappointing, except Rob Corddry, who is a self-acknowledged, walking poop joke.
I'll put it this way, Harold and Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay left me wishing I could have voted for Bush and wanting to visit New Jersey.
I guess you could take that as good or bad, but either way, the very notion that something could make anyone want to go to Jersey is worth a look, maybe even a second look.
