So, anyone catch Due Date starring Robert Downey Jr. and Zach Galifianakis?

Honestly, it’s just your standard road trip comedy. The pacing is all over the place, too.

Most of the laughs basically rely on Jack's character being super annoying and Robert's character being totally pissed off.

The whole plot follows this straight-laced guy who gets kicked off a plane because of some heavy-smoking nuisance, then he's stuck trekking halfway across the USA with him just to make it to his kid's birth.

It's your typical modern comedy. I will say though, it could have been way worse. Not exactly crying about the time I spent watching it.

Basically, it’s your standard road trip comedy—though even then, the pacing feels all over the place.

Most of the "humor" just boils down to Jack's character being an absolute pest and Robert's character being constantly pissed off at him.

The whole plot follows this straight-laced guy who gets kicked off a plane because of some obnoxious, heavy-smoking nuisance—and then, of course, he's forced to trek halfway across the USA with this guy just to make it to his kid's birth.

It's your typical modern comedy, though I'll admit, it could have been way worse... I don't regret the time I spent watching it.

Well, I definitely regret it.😁
What an absolute disaster of a movie.

that movie was a total wreck

I don't know, it was pretty weak, but honestly, it could've been way worse. Let's be real—hardly any comedies coming out in the US these days are even worth watching anyway.

one of the absolute worst movies of the year
calling this a disaster would be an understatement
not a single funny moment in the whole damn thing

A movie following in the footsteps of The Hangover is destined to be a dud, so there's really no way this one could actually be any good. 🤮

Great comedy! I honestly can't remember the last time I laughed this hard.😍 We watched it with a group, and it really made the night. I'm a big fan of both parts of The Hangover (same director), so I’ll definitely be keeping an eye out for his future stuff. Both Robert Downey and Zach Galifianakis are excellent in this. You guys should definitely check it out!
