Due Date

Hands up who’s feeling super-energised and keen for a serious movie at this time of year. Uh-huh. Okay, so maybe I laughed more at this movie than I should have because I’m overtired and burnt out, but that’s exactly what I needed to kick-start the holiday.

From Todd Phillips, who brought us The Hangover, comes this holiday comedy that might not go down as a classic but will definitely have you snorting uncontrollably at certain points. As a reminder, Phillips has thrown in the heavily bearded Zack Galifianakis, who brings with him that same ridiculous Hangover humour, as well as the irresistible Robert Downey Jr. The two pair up for a roadtrip of errors when RDJ mistakenly gets placed on the “no fly” list as he’s rushing off to be with his wife, who’s giving birth. As you can guess, it’s mayhem from start to finish. Definitely my movie of the holiday.

Rating: 4 outta 5.
