SYNOPSIS:
From the director of "Old School" comes a
new comedy about a bachelor party gone horribly wrong. Two
days before his wedding, Doug and his three buddies drive to
Vegas for a blow-out night they'll never forget. But when
the three groomsmen wake up the next morning with pounding
headaches, they can't remember a thing. Their posh hotel
suite is beyond trashed and the groom is nowhere to be
found. With no clue of what happened and little time to
spare, the trio must attempt to retrace their bad decisions
from the night before in order to figure out where things
went wrong and hopefully get Doug back to L.A. in time for
his wedding. However, the more they begin to uncover, the
more they realize just how much trouble they're really in.
REVIEW: Now a days
it is very difficult to find a R rated comedy that doesn’t
include the Apatow bunch, however in "The Hangover" director
Todd Phillips and screenwriter John Lucas and Scott Moore
just manage to put a stop to Apatow revolution with a
brilliant piece of work. This movie has all the ingredients
to become a comedy classic, its raunchy, naughty and like Ed
helms says in the office its “freaking hilarious“. It has
been a long time since I had so much fun in this type of
films.
Similar to "Old School" the
flick doesn’t depend on just one character to carry out the
entire film. Every character provided their own unique style
of humor. For starters Zach Galifianakis brought some of the
raunchiness comedy onto the film that have been mainly seen
in Apatow movies. He reminded me of a young John Belushi in
animal house. This could well be his ticket out of
television and become one of Hollywood's next big comedians.
The same can be say about Bradley Cooper with that buddy
persona that he perfected, just like he did in "Failure to
Launch" and "Yes Man". Ed Helms also delivers a strong
performance in the film, as well as the rest of the cast.
I have to admit that I
wasn't expecting too much out of this film, however at the
end of the movie I could not find a reason for this movie
not to be an instant comedy classic.
