I can see why The Hangover is of this summer’s biggest hits. First, it’s funny as hell. Any movie that can weave a baby, a missing tooth, and Mike Tyson into its plot is comedic gold. Second, the cast perfectly play off each other. Bradley Cooper’s sleazy outspoken Phil, The Office’s Ed Helms’s whipped but goodhearted Stu, Zach Galifanakis’s indescribable Alan and Justin Bartha as Doug, the Groom, pull off each gag (No matter how gross), insult and wisecrack with great comedic timing. Third, Director, Todd Philips and Screenwriters, John Lucus and Scott Moore used a different approach to tell a standard comedic story. They focus on the characters finding out what happened at the Bachelor Party instead of seeing their antics that night. Their reactions to their antics in scenes such as when Phil, Stu and Alan go to the hospital to find Doug or seeing themselves on Tyson’s security cameras are hilarious. I especially, enjoyed the twists and turns in the story such as what happened to Doug during the Bachelor Party. It was great to see some surprises in a comedy instead of the standard set-up the joke plotting. The Hangover’s success proves that not only do audiences want to laugh at the movies but also want to see well-made comedies.

[...] Jeremy Garelick (The Break Up) has been signed on by Paramount Pictures to re-write and direct a big-screen adaptation of Baywatch. The remake rights were bought by Paramount in 2005 and a script was written by Jay Sherick and David Ronn that was, apparently, “heavy on action.” Garelick was then sent the script to do a rewrite on it, and although admitting he’s never watched the show before (seems like an odd choice to write the movie, then), he saw an opportunity to turn the adaptation into a broad comedy. Just as an FYI, Garelick also did an uncredited rewrite with Todd Phillips of this summer’s smash comedy hit, The Hangover. [...]

@vid
Actually, I was more disgusted with some of those photos at the end than with the rest of the movie.

Pretty disappointing. The plot is surprisingly sound but I would’ve thought the outrageous setups would result in huge laughs but at most I had some mild chuckles. The Tyson bit was very disappointing, it looked a lot funnier in the trailer. Someone seems to have confused gross with funny one too many times in this movie.

It’s telling when the funniest part of the movie are the photos after the movie itself is over. Probably the only time I laughed out loud. This movie is overrated.

Yeah I’d have to argue with the ‘under-30′ pidgeon-holing…. I (35, a mom) saw it with my dad (65, Rhodes Scholar) for Father’s Day, and we both enjoyed many laughs! (Although I was a bit chagrined to be next to him for a few of the shots/lines!!) Definitely a crowd-pleaser, for all types who have easy-going senses of humour. See me review it with my Dad at http://www.youtube.com/gabndad

Excellent movie. I’m almost scared at the fact I know TWO people like Zack Galifianakis’ character!

4.5/5 from me. Second best movie of the year easily!

I loved this movie, I don’t remember a part where I wasn’t laughing with my buds. For the one that said this is for the under 30 crowd. I dunno man, I was shocked to see a couple of gray hairs in there laughing with us. Thought that was pretty awesome in its self.

I enjoyed it, but would have given it probably 3.5 out of 5, maybe 4. I wasn’t bored at all, as some people seemed to think it dragged. Some of the pictures at the end I could have lived without (You know which picture I’m talking about Vic).

I do have one question though: What the heck was up with the chicken?!

Although certain scenes were hilarous, I definately don’t think its all the hype that folks are making it out to be. I guess it depends on your humor, but some of it was a bit stupid. And it dragged a little too….

I thought his movie was hilarious. I laughed all the way through it and the photos at the end were priceless. Each one was funnier than the next. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen a comedy that I loved so much I could watch it again, but this is one I could watch over and over. Can’t wait for it to buy on dvd.
