Trailer: DUE DATE looks funny as hell

Robert Downey Jr as the straight man, Zack Galifianakis as the goofball in Todd Phillips' Hangover follow-up!

Oh, we like this. The trailer for Due Date (Nov, Warner Bros) has debuted online and it's funny as hell. As noted by many it's a Planes, Trains and Automobiles type 'buddy' road movie that carries all the crudeness, and toliet humour of director Todd Phillips' last movie The Hangover. Zach Galifianakisas the goofball, Robert Downey as the straight man.

My only concerns are too much Galifianakis, as the movie seems to be shaped completely on his new persona that is getting him a lot of work right now. In fact, he could easily be playing the same character from The Hangover here - which may not be so wise as he's reprising that role for The Hangover sequel next May. Maybe the line 'he better check himself, before he wrecks himself' could be aimed at his career choices right now. And is it just me or has Jamie Foxx completely lost focus as an actor and he now just appears in the most random of movies? And wait... Michelle Monaghan is in this thing and you don't show her? Even after the electric chemistry she shared with Downey in Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang? Still I'm in for this.
