This is my first review on filmCube, so cut me a break. I thought I'd break the seal with any easy one, the comedy of the summer-- The Hangover.
Finally, a movie that can make me laugh out loud, repeatedly. After being spoiled with Crashers, Virgin, Superbad, Knocked Up, etc. Hollywood has been cranking out mediocre comedy by mediocre comedy over the past few years, a la Paul Blart. But with the Hangover, you can finally get some original laughs and get them in great quantity.
Its a story of a bachelor party gone horribly wrong and a bold attempt to clean up the aftermath with getting to the least amount of trouble. The party list is made up of Bradley Cooper (Wedding Crashers, Jennifer Anniston), Ed Helms (The Office), Justin Bartha (National Treasure), and Zac Galifianakis (of stand-up fame). Galifianakis steals the show with his dumb demeanor and his oblivious nature, and his character makes this film a blast to watch. With many Vegas-esque antics and some surprising cameos, its quite the ride to watch this band of bros go through hell in the desert and come out unscathed with one bond-creating story.
Go see this movie. You will laugh, you may feel immature, or grossed out but you will laugh.
Rating: Artistic: N/A..........Entertainment: 5/5
The Hangover can be seen in wide release at a theater near you.
