The friends have moved about Harold has made a good carrer for himself now that he works for Wall street and he has married a new girl. Kumar the funniest one in my opinion has become more of a pot smoker if that is possible. In my opinion this is the most action packed and funniest and of course vulgar.… Expand

I saw this in 3d and for the most part the 3d was cheesy, but it did add to the hilariousness of the movie. If you are looking for cheap laughs, you'll find it here.… Expand

It is a very funny movie, but only if you see it in 3D.

Overall, despite how predictable it is (its a damn Christmas film for crying out loud, it has to be predictable), it has the best 3D I have seen this year since "Transformers: Dark of the Moon", and creates something that is very fun to watch and very comical to an extent.… Expand

Mostly more offensive and outlandish in every way, the movie never seems distasteful or over the top. The story is classic Harold and Kumar, and the comedy finds a happy medium. There are some terribly funny parts in this film, bur there are also some instances of strange discourse. This film is great, but as so many others have stated; it falls short of the first two. The first will still stand as one of my favorite comedies of all time, and it still makes me laugh. I will no doubt laugh at this one during another watch; but it just doesn't have the staying power of the first two. Good movie though.… Expand

This movie was very funny. The problem was that it was very short but it was indeed very funny. They made good use of the 3-D and some of the parts were entertaining.

This is what a 3D movie is supposed to be like, not that knock off Avatar 3D that is constantly being put in movies at the last second so they can slap "3D" to the end of the title. Can't wait to watch this movie again and makes me wish I had money to buy a 3D TV for when it comes out on blu-ray.… Expand

If you know Harold and Kumar from before you probably know that they are stoned almost all the time and do crazy things. A very Harold & Kumar 3D Christmas is really no exception even if Harold being grown-up and Kumar still being the lazy stoner. This movie does not brings the Christmas-feeling at all nor the classic Harold & Kumar-humour but the film is definitely funny and entertaining. Funny and new jokes really makes me laugh, and the storyline is quite crazy. You can't hate Harlod and Kumar, they are crazy and funny and fits perfectly into the role.… Expand

I've giving it this high of a rating for one reason and one reason only. I could not stop laughing hysterically.

I could not stop laughing hysterically. The plot is ridiculous and none of the characters matter, but this movie has to be one of the funniest I've seen since "Anchorman." Like "Anchorman," "A Very Harold & Kumar Christmas" relishes in its stupidity. It doesn't care about being realistic or giving you characters to sympathize with. It mostly just wants to hit you upside the head with laughs for 90 minutes. Most films that try to do this are not successful simply because they can't keep up the hilarity for that long. But the makers of "A Very Harold & Kumar Christmas" never let up. The film starts out strong and it ends the same way. Some of you might not find this to be as funny as I did. If you're easily offended by distasteful jokes, or you're wanting to see an actual Christmas movie, you might want to skip this one. But for those of you who like your humor shocking and in-your-face, you will love this new "Harold & Kumar."… Expand

This one seemed to be the most tame of the three movies in this series. Although the characters are the oldest they've been and supposedly have the most mature problems, the gags and situations in this movie seemed to be the most juvenile of all the films. It is almost as if they have forgotten how to be funny unless trying to appeal to the thirteen-year old in everyone. Also, it is more of a standard situation comedy rather than a true stoner movie. I think someone deduced that this movie was going to best appeal to the middle and high school audiences. Less drug use, and generally sophomoric setup is the best way to tread in addressing these age groups.… Expand

I haven't laughed that hard in a theater in a long while. This movie was great. If your a harold and kumar fan, you'll love this movie. If your a stoner, you'll love this movie.

If your a stoner, you'll love this movie. Its hard to make a good 3rd movie in a series. This one did it by showning us a bit softer harold and kumar yet staying harold and kumar with the hiliarious crazy mishappens and obstacles that randomly pop up for the pair. I thought the whole baby doing coke thing was just a little too ridiculous, made me think they were trying just a little too hard to be funny. Everything else in the movie was either funny or **** hiliarious, espically when they go clay animation lol.… Expand

Neil Patrick Harris is barely in it even though he is on the front cover of the DVD and his part was definitely one of the better parts of it. Go buy this movie and get the guys together because the women won't be there.… Expand

The soundtrack in this movie made me sad, because I loved the soundtrack in the other two, didn't really like this one. Even though this movie started a little slow, it ended up really good and I really really enjoyed it. NPH was awesome as always! and the new characters they added were great. I hope they spend a little more time on making a fourth one, and I reeeeally hope they do make a fourth one. Good movie.… Expand

What's not to love about a fresh round of Harold and Kumar hijinks? This installment is more family orientated for the duo, which lets them show their sweeter side at times.
