Harold & Kumar 3 (or Christmas or whatever)
I liked seeing the characters again, though how much of an asshole Harold had turned into was a bit annoying, all the fun of his character was drained and most of the movie felt like you were putting up with him.
There were a few scoffs but really I just didn't find this one all that funny...the storyline was pretty standard fare for something that's been given the Christmas treatment, but where the first two had some weird tripped out scenes, this one was honestly like watching a kids film with swearing.
Aside from what I'm sure was meant to be the hilarity of getting a baby high, and the obvious dick scene, this was as though they'd made an attempt to make a much more "family friendly" film, which is fine and all, but really - wrong franchise.
I'd say this would have killed the franchise.

Just got back from "Safehouse".
I liked it for the better part.
An OK plot, though nothing we haven't seen before.
The dialogue was good, Denzel was solid as always, Reynolds was pretty bland (if only he could channel the intensity his character had in "Smokin Aces" more often).
The action and driving scenes were well done, and the fights seemed quite realistic and painful.
The overall plot, while I don't have an issue with it, tried a bit too hard to be convoluted so as to throw you off.
Like, it's a good movie...just not one I'd anticipate my next viewing of.
