Trivia:
In an April 24 2008 Newark Star Ledger interview, the writers Jon Hurwitz and Hayden Schlossberg mention that the poem "The Square Root of Three" that Kumar recites was written by a classmate of theirs, David Feinberg when all three went to Randolph High School in New Jersey. They were happy they could include in the film a poem they loved while growing up, and Feinberg was thrilled to make a contribution to the film. more

Its equally good as H&K1 and raunchier, 25 April 2008
9/10
Author: Vic P from San Francisco,CA

Its kinda late for me to write the review as I saw this movie about 2 mnths ago in SF during the Asian American film festival. The movie is great and equally good as the white castle. Its definitely one of the best stoner comedies for sure. Kal Penn as usual has done a great job but also seen in a little emotional role with his gf. Haroldy has done a very good job as well. I don't know how the current version is going to be as they have been advertising sayiing 'modified for the uptight audiences' which kinda sucks. I hope they haven't gone too far with that If you liked the first one you'll simply love the 2nd one as well. It's definitely worth watching it and also worth owning a set of 2 DVDS (so far). I can't wait for another journey with H & K
