Why The Hangover Didn't Suck


I recently saw Todd Phillips' The Hangover. I won't lie, it was hilarious. Usually I have way more fun ripping movies apart but I couldn't really find anything wrong with this one. It was just a funny film. Here's a couple reasons why:

  1. Zach Galifianakis
  2. Asians
  3. Nudity
  4. Zach Galifianakis and Asian Nudity

And that's only a couple. If you're unfamiliar with Zach Galifianakis then you should look here or here. If you're unfamiliar with Asians, then you should look here.

The plot of The Hangover is very simple to follow and all too familiar to people who are heavy drinkers or, as it's said in French, "cool". Doug (Justin Bartha) is getting married. So he, like any guy with half a brain, has a bachelor party. Not just any bachelor party though. A Vegas bachelor party, with his two friends, Stu (Ed Helms) and Phil (Bradley Cooper) along with his brother-in-law to be, Alan (Zach Galifianakis). So they get there, start drinking and then it cuts to the next morning. Doug, is missing. So the three friends have to find him in time to get home for the wedding.

I'm not going to ruin anything because you really ought to see it. Ladies, two words: Bradley Cooper. Men, two words: Heather Graham. Yes. She's in it. Along with Mike Tyson (as if you didn't know that from the trailer). So there's really nothing wrong with this movie. Just go see it. Here's to you, The Hangover.
