A Classic yet a tad overrated IMO....

Rating: 8/10 (10 March 2013)

Do not shoot.
I still gave it 8 out of 10.
The second one was ridiculous since it was so similar (even if that was the point) and the fact they are making a third is beyond ludicrous. Just trying to suck in the sheep to make a quick buck, the script will probably suck but I wont judge till I see it.
Back to this one, I saw it opening night with little expectations, I only really knew of Bradley Cooper from Hes not that into you, the dick from Wedding Crashers and a cult horror film, Yes Man Midnight Meat Train.
This was clearly Coopers time to shine, after this he went on to do thinks like date Anniston, appear in Limitless and Oscar nominated movie which was great Silver Linings Playbook. (Two movies with my favorite actor De Niro to boot)
Ya know this was my sisters favorite comedy at the time right after she saw it, claiming it was the funniest movie ever. It did not end there...my brother saw it 6 times in the theater, he never DOES THAT AT ALL so he must of liked it obviously. It really helps me and my friends just stayed at Caesers Palace the year before I saw this and I am from Canada and do not travel a lot. What was also cool was I went to Vegas a month after opening night of this film once again and stayed at MGM and every time I passed by Palace I thought of the film.
I do no think this is as funny as Superbad, Knocked Up, Horrible Bosses or even 40 Year Old Virgin, and of course my favourite comedy the Big Lebowski by the legendary Coen Brothers. If you enjoyed the movies I just named, perhaps you will agree that this movie is arguably close but not better then what I named. Well maybe it is right on Par with bosses. I like to class this movie in the likes of classic comedies like There is Something About Mary, or Meet the Parents.
Great Fun just not the funniest movie of the decade like some claim!
