Fast Food. High Times.

Straitlaced, hard-working Harold (John Cho, the American Pie movies) and his roommate, the rebellious, party-loving Kumar (Kal Penn, National Lampoon's Van Wilder) have only one thing in common - a serious case of the munchies. As they set out on a quest to satisfy their craving, Harold and Kumar's simple road trip turns into a hilarious all-night adventure filled with outrageous obstacles, dangerous detours and wildly twisted characters!

With a hysterically funny supporting cast including Neil Patrick Harris and Fred Willard, Harold & Kumar Go To White Castle will take you on a rollercoaster comedy ride....
