Single-handedly setting the cinema back 100 years 2010-07-29

Reviewer: Eric J. Anderson

Seriously. Charlie Chaplin was more sophisticated than The Hangover.

Lame. Un-funny. This movie is the equivalent a child with a booger on the end of his finger sticking it out at you and expecting you to laugh. Funny to him, not to me.

In addition, this film is proof Roger Ebert can no longer be trusted. The blurb on the back of the box quotes Ebert as rating this three and a half stars, with this assessment: "Now this is what I'm talkin' about. A funny movie, flat out, all the way through."

There's nothing wrong with dumbness and wackiness. Laurel and Hardy. I rest my case. But that was inspired dumbness. Seinfeld was inspired wackiness. This is recycled, clumsy, cheap, easy, obvious dumbness. Seinfeld without the inspiration.

Love this movie! 2010-07-28

This movie is one of the funniest of all time. You would be doing yourself a favor by buying this DVD. Laughs a plenty to be had.

Gets Funnier Everytime I Watch It 2010-07-27

This movie kills me. I went through a period where I was flying long distance a lot and pretty much watched it every time I few. The movie got funnier each time I watched it.

Best comedy in years 2010-07-26

Reviewer: G. Swift

While not quite a movie for women, this is a great movie for guys to enjoy, even if they're staid and boring like me. While I don't drink, gamble or do drugs, I can find the humor in the misadventures that result from unplanned indulgences.

The Las Vegas bachelor party is legendary, but this is really the first movie to pursue showing it off. Three guys head off with their doomed friend for one last blast before he takes the vows. One guy is the uptight dentist with the horrible girlfriend whom he seems to love out of spite, or perhaps despite how badly she treats him including having cheated on him. Another is the guy in denial about his real life with wife and son and the job teaching young kids who wants to live free like an idiot. The third guy is not even a real friend but the brother of the soon-to-be wife. When this third guy tries to ingratiate himself to the group by secretly purchasing drugs, which get mixed up with rufies, he causes the entire story to proceed.

As the guys wake up after the night of adventure with no recollection of how their room got trashed, where the tiger in the bathroom came from, why there's a baby in the closet, and where the groom might be, they pile into their misappropriated cop car and try to trace the steps they cannot remember through the drug-induced haze.

While the adventures are completely ludicrous, from encountering Mike Tyson to getting involved with a gay oriental gangster of sorts, the mismatched reactions of the three are true to their characters' forms and are hilarious to watch unfold. Sadly, only one of the four guys shows any character development over the course of the movie, that being the tightly-wound dentist, while the others end the show in the same state they started.

While this version lacks all the bells and whistles, unless you're happy with ponying up extra dough for more photos of the forgotten night and other behind the scenes features, plus added footage to make it unrated, the theatrical version is hardly a waste of time or money.

ONE OF THE MOST HILARIOUS 2010-07-25

Reviewer: M. Tilly

This is one of the funniest movies I've ever seen in my life. What made it so funny for me was not only the antics of the characters, but the fact that I could actually see myself becomeing involved in such a situation. In fact, I've been involved in some similar experiences, although thankfully none quite so extreme as this one. Anyway, I believe this is a must see movie for anyone who likes comedy.
