Trivia:
Amnesty International USA was highly critical of the film's satirical depiction of the Guantanamo Bay Detention Camp, commenting on their website that "Guantanamo is no joke." The organization's membership was encouraged to hand out fliers and fact sheets at theatrical screenings to bring attention to the alleged human rights abuses that have occurred at the camp. more

Harold Lee: [in shower] What the fuck? What the fuck? What are you doing?

[continues to take a dump]
Kumar Patel: Don't worry, in a little bit I'm sure it'll hit you too.

A relief from political correctness and funny as hell, 12 July 2008
9/10
Author: Damon Ashworth (damon.ashworth@yahoo.co.uk) from United Kingdom

In a world gone crazy where reality TV humiliates and tears every shred of decency from human beings both the people taking part and the mindless minions who watch countless hours of reality drivel (funny that these are the people who find films like Harold and Kumar rude, crude and offencive)and countless romantic comedies and boring Diaz and Sandler un-comedic vehicles comes the throwback that is Harold and Kumar well acted well written with every cliché and grossness you can think of and then some thrown in for good measure no group is spared the relentless assault made me smile from start to end, watching Neil Patrick Harris as a foul mouthed stoner and the constant stereotyping of everyone from rednecks to terrorists was priceless lets hope Harold and Kumar still have some more adventures to come, and by the way I'm in my 40's my girlfriends in her 20's and my mothers 64 and we all loved it.
