Expected more

True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

Watching it is like watching the spectacle of a class clown at their best: you laugh at their jokes, instigate their defiance, and "ooooh" when they get in trouble.

Don't understand the bad reviews, hilarious movie. Felt a bit too similar to hangover but it delivered for sure.

I just got this movie the other day. I have never heard of it before. It took me about two minutes into the film to realize that is it just a rip-off of the classic "Planes, Trains, and Automobiles" I mean come on.. two guys - one a straight man, the other a goof, get thrown together after being forced off an airplane? I knew before it even happened that they were going to wreck the rental car. He even kept Peter's wallet.!!!! It was sort of a fun film to watch but totally totally predictable. The only difference here was more swearing, the goofy guy was SUPER goofy and the straight guy was even more of a jerk. I'll never watch this one again. If I want to watch a great comedy I'll go back to the original.

Due Date (2010): Dir: Todd Phillips / Cast: Robert Downey Jr., Zach Galifianakis, Jamie Foxx, Michelle Monaghan, Juliette Lewis: Another exhausted road movie comedy full of stupid clichés. This one not only regards the soon-to-be birth of Robert Downey Jr.'s kid, but it also regards his sudden situation where he is forced to be civil to someone who is a complete moron. Downey Jr. is forced into a road trip with Zach Galifianakis, an aspiring actor who wishes to dump his father's ashes in the Grand Canyon. As predicted, they get into various mishaps that are unbelievable while becoming best pals. This sounds vaguely familiar. Maybe it is because Planes,Trains and Automobiles handled this storyline much more effectively. Downey Jr is a capable actor just coming off two blockbusters so this is no advance for him. Galifianakis was likable in The Hangover but here he is downright pathetic. Michelle Monaghan as Downey Jr.'s wife is wasted in phone contacts. It is a given that she will go into labor and Galifianakis will do something that will gain Downey Jr's good graces. Jamie Foxx is the one interesting character who is suspected of foul play with Monaghan, and who actually assists them with transportation that one point. Juliette Lewis is apparently playing the same character she played in another Todd Phillips comedy, Old School, where she was much more fun to watch. Directed by Todd Phillips as a lazy followup to his masterpiece The Hangover. Expect none of that clever comic expertize here although watching the film itself has got to be in equal manner with a hangover. Score: 2 ½ / 10

A very enjoyable movie from the beginning till the very end.Even though Downey has made a name from inside the metal suit, he still has to offer a lot of variety. You may have seen different colors while watching The Soloist, The Judge, or Zodiac, Due Date is yet another spectrum.No matter how many times you watch this movie, you won't get bored. Extreme chemistry between the two leads. Downey and Zach are like two poles, extreme opposite and yet they bring you along on this hilarious ride with them.You would still laugh when you hear "Dad, you were like a father to me." Or when you hear "Julia Roberts, I know we are engaged, I have terminal cancer."Zach is outstanding. Watch it, you won't regret.
