The Hangover - You will remember it the next morning

Comedy - 8.7/10
Justin Bartha, Ed Helms, Heather Graham, Zach Galifianikis
Directed by: Todd Phillips

Rather than downloading, I decided to go and see this with some friends tonight. I haven't laughed so hard in a long time.

For those of you who haven't seen the preview, Hangover is about a bunch of friends who go to Las Vegas to have a bachelor party. They wake up the next morning and begin piecing together the previous nights events, with one minor hitch. The groom to be is missing.

The characters, acting and movie fundamentals are all very solid. Vulgarity, nudity and sexual scenarios are common though so be warned if you plan on seeing this with someone sensitive to this type of material.

The pace, shot selection, and guest cameos make this movie extremely entertaining start to finish. If you are a fan of shock-horror, see if you can appreciate the screenwriting, producing and acting that leave many "shock-comedy" scenes with the crowd roaring.

If you are looking for a good laugh, head to the theaters and check out "The Hangover".
