Don't understand the bad reviews, hilarious movie. Felt a bit too similar to hangover but it delivered for sure.

Todd Phillips delivers again. This film was funny from start to finish, to me. The two main actors are great together. I'm not a huge fan of Zach, but Downey's co-starring role made him more likable to me. There were also a lot of very subtle, extremely funny side jokes that occur throughout the film. The Perm, the dad's ashes, Danny McBride, and on and on.I can watch it over and over.

This is a better version of Planes, Trains and Automobiles. Most people say it's an inferior copy of PT&A, but Due Date is much funnier. Robert Downey Jr and Zack Galifianakis are excellent together as chalk and cheese characters. Due Date is less funny towards the end, but it's still one of the funniest comedies of the decade.

Due Date (2010): Dir: Todd Phillips / Cast: Robert Downey Jr., Zach Galifianakis, Jamie Foxx, Michelle Monaghan, Juliette Lewis: Another exhausted road movie comedy full of stupid clichés. This one not only regards the soon-to-be birth of Robert Downey Jr.'s kid, but it also regards his sudden situation where he is forced to be civil to someone who is a complete moron. Downey Jr. is forced into a road trip with Zach Galifianakis, an aspiring actor who wishes to dump his father's ashes in the Grand Canyon. As predicted, they get into various mishaps that are unbelievable while becoming best pals. This sounds vaguely familiar. Maybe it is because Planes,Trains and Automobiles handled this storyline much more effectively. Downey Jr is a capable actor just coming off two blockbusters so this is no advance for him. Galifianakis was likable in The Hangover but here he is downright pathetic. Michelle Monaghan as Downey Jr.'s wife is wasted in phone contacts. It is a given that she will go into labor and Galifianakis will do something that will gain Downey Jr's good graces. Jamie Foxx is the one interesting character who is suspected of foul play with Monaghan, and who actually assists them with transportation that one point. Juliette Lewis is apparently playing the same character she played in another Todd Phillips comedy, Old School, where she was much more fun to watch. Directed by Todd Phillips as a lazy followup to his masterpiece The Hangover. Expect none of that clever comic expertize here although watching the film itself has got to be in equal manner with a hangover. Score: 2 ½ / 10
