Grade: B+
The new road-trip comedy “Due Date,” from the director of “The Hangover,” Todd Phillips, is a funny story of an odd couple consisting of Robert Downey Jr., playing an easily irritated architect, and Zach Galifianakis, playing an aspiring Hollywood actor. Downey’s character, Peter, is trying to get home, with the help of Ethan, Galifianakis’ character, to his wife who is about to give birth to their first child. With Galifianakis’ scene-stealing moments, the film offers movie-goers an entertaining flick that provides a heartfelt story and plenty of crude humor.
