Allan’s World of Music

Harold and Kumar 2: Escape From Guantanamo Bay was released to theatres today and I went to see it with Kevin as the first one was pretty awesome and produced tons of laughs.

As far as expectations go, I think the only expectation was that it had to be funny and anything extra was a bonus. I guess I guage how funny a movie is with the type of laughter I usually give off. In the case of movies if it’s able to get me laughing like a girl…it has done its job. I will say that some jokes were way too silly that it got unnecessary though the racial jokes and debunking of stereotypes was definitely a highlight. The storyline was a bit cheesy and the jokes make the movie worthwhile. One character also had me annoyed and being overthetop stupid (forget his name but he’s the guy in the trailer making the North Korea + Al Quaeda joke). However the movie knew how to be cute/romantic yet funny at the same time so it wasn’t all drug-filled silliness.

Overall, you got what you paid for which was lots of laughs and stupid storyline or not, it had its moments. 4 out of 5.

As for the soundtrack, it wasn’t too bad with the song that stuck out the most was Mickey Avalon’s My Dick as it played after the “bottomless” party. I think the soundtrack was alright, the hip-hop tied well into the movie the only thing I hated was the use of Boyz II Men It’s So Hard To Say Goodbye. I just didn’t think it tied into the movie and the movie doesn’t need serious “sad” moments.

Anyway here’s my playlist for the movie:
(for you Googlers, the actual soundtrack list can be found here)

1. My Dick by Mickey Avalon
2. Amsterdam by Peter, Bjorn and John
3. I Gotta Run by Everybody Else
4. It Could Have Been A Brilliant Career by Belle & Sebastian
5. Stupid and Shallow by The Futureheads
6. A Better Son/Daughter by Rilo Kiley
7. Kissing In The Grass by Of Montreal
8. Because I Got High by Afroman
9. Banking On A Myth by Andrew Bird
10. Southern Comfort by Arrah and The Ferns
11. Vanished by Crystal Castles
12. Stoned Again by The Evangelicals
13. People You Meet by Bishop Allen

I could explain the meaning of each song if you don’t get why I put them in, just leave a comment and I’ll gladly respond.

5. Allan — April 29, 2008 @ 6:40 pm
   
   

   I’m having fuzzy memory guys.

   Jorge: I think it was Take My Breath Away by Berlin (top gun theme song). I think it’s that because it’s related to flying? I could be easily mistaken.

   The techno theme song I have no idea…

7. Neil — April 30, 2008 @ 4:02 am
   
   

   The song in the cops headphones was “highway to the danger zone”, it’s from the top gun soundtrack. Does anyone know the song that is playing during the first stages of the closing credits, when all 4 are running through amsterdam? I think it was the last song before the gospel weed song.

51. TL — July 21, 2008 @ 11:34 pm
    
    

    Just wondering why no one reads past comments lol, most of the questions were answered. As well, if a song was quite noticeable, it’s probably in the soundtrack, listen to a few samples on Amazon from the H&K soundtrack.

    Also, if the song had lyrics, just do a google search - lyric: “type words you heard here” Can’t make it any simpler than that
