I apologize, but without having read a single post in the thread, I have no doubt that I would rather spend 90 minutes IN a White Castle, than seeing this film.
MMMMMM. I wish we had 'em!!!

"Personally, I didn't see much difference between this and Dude, Where's My Car?...except for the lack of aliens in this one, thankfully."
Well that's a good start
I saw it tonight, and I have to say it's a much smarter, funnier movie than 'Dude, Where''s My Car?

I saw this yesterday afternoon, and thought it was very funny.
I have only seen 3 comedies in the theater this summer and I rank them as Anchorman> Harold and Kumar> Dodgeball
I would probably give it 3 stars... at the very least worth a rental if you are only a casual moviegoer.

Sorry stoners, but i guess Filthy disagrees with this film.
When are people going to learn that teen comedies can be good like Animal House? When Hollywood when? Oh right you just like the money.

I finally saw this last night.
The theater with about 75 ppl in it was like 75% Asian (90% of them East Asian). I felt like I was watching Better Luck Tomorrow again.
I brought my white roommate with me who has an Asian fetish and he was laughing even more than me.
This was the funniest movie I've seen all year. I laughed more than I did at Dodgeball, Anchorman, or White Chicks.
I loved the scene in the end credits when
.
Some other classic lines:
"Dude, just cuz I'm hung like a horse doesn't mean I have to be in porn."
"Those guys look like lame versions of us."
Kumar's shirt. "I love Bush.....Not the President...but the *****"
I'm gonna see this again next week with a different group of friends.

Just got back and for the most part I liked it. There were some moments that were just not funny to me but others that were downright hilarious.
One question though
I agree though with earlier comments that Dude Where's My Car should have been more along these lines.
one other part that no one else in the theater seemed to be laughing at but I was cracking up during was

Comedies aspire to make the viewers laugh, and on that criteria, this film did not let me down. Some of the scenes were very LOL funny, while others were amusing, though there are a few detours that seemed to be channeling the Coen brothers in strangeness, but thankfully those scenes are few and far between. I also felt the middle dragged just a bit, but overall, a fun time.
I give it 2.75 stars, or a grade of B-.
