Due Date. Robert Downing Jr and Zach Galifinakus in a strange serious of events end up having to travel from Atlanta to Los Angeles in 3 days for Peter's (Downing) wife's scheduled c-section. Zach Galifinakus is really a good actor and I think this movie shows how he will not be type casted. His character is a sad, lonely man just looking for someone to spend time with for a little bit. His father has just died and he is in mouring, plus he is naturally really weird. He is carrying with him a dog, Sunny and his father's ashes and he is going to Hollywood (as he calls Los Angeles) to become an actor. So really the reason the movie is funny is because Ethan Tremblay (Galifinakus) is a crazy pot head in mourning.
Robert Downing, Jr is the straight man. He plays an architect who was just traveling on business bumps into Ethan Tremblay and switches bags with him and its all downhill for him from here. He has no wallet; no ID, no credit cards, no cash and Ethan has a rental car and offers him a ride. He reluctantly takes the offer, having no other choice. Through their many ups and downs they somehow make it through and arrive just in time of course. But thats all I'm giving away about this one (Its too new).
I loved this movie, I'm glad we bought it, its one of those movies you can watch over and over again. Both actors are great and its like a 'Planes, Trains, and Automobiles' for our generation. Bottom line, its a must see.
