The Hangover - 5 stars out of 10

The Hangover - 5 stars out of 10

This movie is SO over the top!  There were too many f-words for my taste and I just felt really sorry for the characters the entire time (I call this the "Meet the Parents" effect, where so many things go wrong that I just feel bad).  Luckily, the wedding singer starts singing that ridiculous song so I was able to stop feeling bad and just laugh.  From the tiger to Mike Tyson, you'll never know what to expect next.  Zach Galifanakis is hilariously awkward throughout the entire movie, Ed Helms plays a clone of "Andy Bernard" from The Office, and Bradley Cooper holds the story together as they try to recover from their amnesia and retrace the steps of their crazy night.  The best feature of this movie is how the end credits pull this entire mysterious story together.  This won't ever be a classic like "Happy Gilmore" or "Anchorman," but it's still good for a few laughs.
