SJ Reviews: ' The Hangover'..Vegas Comedy Jackpot (4)

Recommended Posts

The Hangover goes where few comedies go....BEING FUNNY THE WHOLE MOVIE!!!

Plus its damn different. It has a unique twist on the Bro Comedies as it goes backwards unraveling unkown depravity.

This comedy is flat out funny from Frame one till middle of closing credits (DO NOT LEAVE).

Basic premise is 4 guys; Groom to be , Best man (Bradley Cooper), henpecked buddy, and mentaally off brother of bride to be (Zach Galifianakis FLAT OUT STEALS THE MOVIE), go to Vegas for a 1 night Bachelor party.

They turn this into 2 nights when they wake up and realize they have lost the groom. What ensues is a day of looking for groom, finding out what happened night before as no one seems to remember and a few self awakenings as well.

The supporting cast is hilarious and the sight gags, one lines etc NEVER stop.

Its hard to explain in print, but this is funny for all, probably guys a tad more, but all in theater were laughing their asses off..

Remember what I said, Zach Galifianakis will be a performance you will remember for a LONG TIME!!!!

A Must See for comedy fans!!!!

Son of a bitch... I guess I know what I am doing tonight.

I am a sucker for a good comedy... I won't pass this up.

DO NOT be late!!

1st 5 minutes is hilarious and sets up xxxx (brother of bride) perfectly!!!!

Never can understand those who come late to flick..everyone knows it starts 10-15 minutes after listed start time (previews)...WTF?? But I still see people walking in at 8:00 PM for a 7:30 PM listed start time?? Duhhhhhh

I guess its just a psychological habitual late thing..

thanks for the well wishes. i hope u and your wife enjoy a nice evening with a bottle of chardonnay, and reminisce on the awkward moments we will be having. :-P

Look, if I'm any example just be yourself and let the humor fly. My first date with my wife--movies, brunch, walking in NYC...alas no sex other than major making out--lasted something like nine hours. She always remembers it as us talking non-stop and me making her laugh until her sides hurt with my depraved comedy, including a pratfall at the movie theater where I rolled down the entire length of the center aisle. After a few dates, i made sure her insides received equal treatment.

so you're saying that I should deliberately trip myself on a staircase, tumble all the way down, lay on the floor and fake pain, and wait for her to come and comfort me.

sounds like a plan! LOL

This sounds great, I'll check it out.

..but I'm nervous, since the last comedy I saw based on a JN review was Borat. I was done with that piece of crap after the 200th weiner joke (around 3minutes in).

Hoping this will be more similar to Frank Oz' "Death at a Funeral".

Me four.

Also, I'm the type of guy who has a small numbers of movies I will see regardless of of reviews or word of mouth. For the other movies I wait for reviews and word of mouth. I had no intention of seeing The Hangover, but everyone I've heard from says it's great. So I'll definately check it out.
