Something to sniff At

Danny Leiner
John Cho, Kal Penn, Paula Garces, Christopher Meloni, David Krumholtz
15.
Cho and Penn are the H and K of the title, a couple of twenty something pals who love nothing better than puffing on a lungful of happycigs.
After an evening so spent they decide they’d quite fancy a burger from the White Castle; which just happens not to be at the nearest corner. On the journey to the Castle they meet some decidedly odd characters.
It’s actually not the worst film you’ll see before Yuletide, and at least the stars make the most of their characters and the defects of a half-baked screenplay. There are a couple of passable nudges of the funny-bone, but the promise of a much better film isn’t realised.
1/5
