Plot summary

Having just finished stuffing their faces with heaps of burgers and fries, after their quest for satisfaction in Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle (2004), the pot-smoking best friends, Harold and Kumar, board a plane for Amsterdam to follow Harold's crush, Maria. Dreaming of having a blast, instead, the boys find themselves on their way to the impenetrable Guantánamo Bay detention camp after a disastrous misunderstanding, some 35,000 feet above sea level. Now, rather than sampling all that the maximum-security facility has to offer, the stoner duo escapes and embarks on a hopeless, purple-hazed adventure peppered with poor life choices, ignorant government agents, and beautiful mythical creatures. Will the weed-loving fugitives ever manage to clear their names? Above all, are Harold and Maria destined to be together?—Nick Riganas
