Due Date (2010)

I would directly get to the points I would like to discuss. Zach Galifianakis - this was the second instance I saw him on big screen. Before watching him here, I saw him in Hangover. For me, it was as if the actor is really like that. It took me watching, an interview of his that he was acting out everything.As the movie ran I enjoyed every instance, until Zach disclosed he had all stuff belonging to Robert. Even I wanted him to get punished. It was as if Zach has almighty's hand on his head that everything that was inflicted on him, more came onto the inflictor. I really wanted Robert to reach his wife delivery before time with cent percent wellness. If that would have happened the movie would have gained an extra point.

I wasn't expecting much from 'Due Date', but I was pleasantly surprised. I laughed a lot more than I thought I would and the film as a whole is a lot more enjoyable than I'd anticipated. Director Todd Phillips was also behind 'The Hangover' movies and there are some clear similarities between the two, especially in the style of humour.Zach Galifianakis' character, Ethan, is very similar to The Hangover's Alan. I don't think anybody plays the stupid guy better than him, and he's on top form once again in 'Due Date'. There are some very funny individual scenes, but it never quite reaches the same level of humour as the first Hangover movie, which was relentlessly funny. 'Due Date' is still definitely worth seeing though, even if it's only for the hilarious Galifianakis.

High-strung father-to-be Peter Highman is forced to hitch a ride with aspiring actor Ethan Tremblay on a road trip in order to make it to his child's birth on time. Due Date is one of the most underrated Robert Downey Jr. and Zach Galifianakis films i have ever seen in matter of fact i think that outside the Iron Man films Downey struggles to make some good films and that's the problem because for every Iron Man or Avengers there's always an Air America right? Well this isn't one of his worst films in my opinion the chemistry between the 2 leads is pretty good and some of the jokes do land especially the one in the Plane. The soundtrack is what you would expect from a Road Trip film and some of the cameos are quite good too for example Danny McBride. Overall i think that this film was pretty good it made me laugh and i had a great time watching it and if you liked films such as The Hangover you will definitely like Due Date as well.

I have watched this movie since it came out five years ago and to be honest I was really confused when I decided to review it on IMDb. 6.6 out of 10 is not that low but it's pretty low for what I expected. OK, I happen to love both these actors and so, an eight makes sense for me, but I would at least expect an overall 7/10...! This is an amazing comedy, lots of funny moments there, not the hilarious really obvious ones, but moments with laughter that is deeply rooted in the traits of each character. The laughs that this movie gets are, most of them, intelligent laughs. This is not a movie with jokes that everyone gets. And that's a good thing. The plot is amazing and the acting, upon which the movie heavily depends, both from Galifianakis and Downey Jr., was amazing! Just amazing! The supporting cast carried the movie as well with no problems, actually adding nice elements to the story (like the war veteran). This is a classic that will get laughs out of you no matter how many times you watch it. Yesterday it was my third time and I still laughed most of the time. Good job!
