The Hangover

"-'I always wondered why they were called roofies.  

Cause you're more likely to end up on the floor than on the roof.  They should call em floories.'

-'Or rapies.'"

This was by far the funniest movie I've seen this year!  There may have been some predictable bits, but it all worked and still was able to be refreshing without having to be a Judd Apatow movie.  

No doubt Zach Galifianakis stole this movie. 

I've enjoyed his brand of comedy, stand up and tv work, for a couple years.  Especially his reoccurring appearances on my FAVORITE show Tim and Eric Awesome Show Great Job!.  He has been in a number of movies, but never really aloud to shine like he did in this one.

I've seen a number of these blackout movies.  Dude Where's My Car, What Happens in Vegas, and I was really thinking this movie was going to be another Very Bad Things.  Though the concept is not original, the writing and the delivery is what makes this an instant modern classic.  

One thing after a-fuckin-nother is unveiled about the cah-ray-zee bachelor party that happened the night before.  Their main goal is to find their friend, the groom, who is missing the following morning, and is getting married tomorrow.  

You know it was a crazy night in Vegas when you wake up in your hotel room missing a tooth, there's a tiger in the bathroom, and you find a baby in the closet.  It's great!

This movie is satisfying on all levels.  

Including the BIGGEST payoff of seeing the lost photos of their night during the  end credits.  As if I haven't laughed enough!  I was laughing so hard, it felt like my older brother was tickling me waaaaay passed the point of saying 

"I'm serious! Stop!"  It was hard to breathe through the laughter.  Great movie.  And it's going to be an even better DVD to watch and quote over and over again.  I can't wait to see it again.  I just wish I can see it again for the first time.
