Walking through the streets of America is certainly one of the most fascinating topics covered constantly by both Hollywood and the international cinema. And though there are hundreds movies on this theme, when in front of the camera is once more Robert Downey Jr. Then let’s expect a product more special than others. To understand the excellence of this director you should find a website that let you watch free movies online and enjoy this comedy. Contrarily to what one might think, “Due date” is not created from the same crazy formula of “Hangover”, despite the presence of the same director and despite co-star Zach Galifianakis is playing the same foolish role of this different movie. This is a comedy that gives a nod to the great John Hughes, trying to go down in history as a new “Ticket for two”. And the director’s intentions are sincere: the chemistry between Downey and at Galifianakis works both for hilarious or sad scenes, even if the Steve Martin and John Candy couple will always remain at an higher level. Rather than constantly trying to blow the viewer hits the chair with laughter, the film tells of a friendship that grows in extraordinary circumstances. An issue far from original, but in the hands of Todd Phillips translates on the screen in one of the first true Hollywood comedies on the road of the new millennium.
