"Some guys just can't handle Vegas"

Rating: 10/10 (23 November 2011)

A Las Vegas-set comedy centered around three groomsmen who lose their about-to-be-wed buddy during their drunken misadventures, then must retrace their steps in order to find him.
Nowadays, as you should all know, comedies (and horror, specifically) have had clichéd attempts at creating something funny (or scary.) As do these all fail, the man who brought us Road Trip and Old School makes possibly one of the best comedies of the decade. The premise is simplistic and clever. You'll feel as if your joined along with the gang and their misadventures through Vegas. The humor is top notch and each character has their own personal comedic aspects. My favorite was personally Zach Galifianakis, who has made a new debut in the film industry. Seeing how much these guys messed up and how they react to their mistakes, it all turns out to be the funniest things ever. The twist (Alan actually drugging the wolf pack) was kind of stupid, but it worked and I see of no other twist they could've planned. The acting was good and funny, and I'm so glad how the gang wasn't those famous actors like Johnny Depp or Leonardo DiCaprio. This meaning I loved how they chose some underrated actors and made them shine through, similar to Horrible Bosses. This controversial, hilarious, gritty, humorous-filled trip will have you hungry for more of the wolf pack. I highly enjoyed everything of the film, to the humor and to the simple, clever plot. If your into Todd Philips work, your more than likely to love the Hangover. If your into comedy, point black, your more than likely to love the Hangover. Even if your not the biggest fan of each, maybe the Hangover will take you by surprise with it's NO clichéd funniness. And I finalize my review with my salute to Todd for creating, yet again, another comedy we can all laugh to. Better yet, a comedy that takes away from the clichés and what not, and creates a new breed of comedy. 10/10.
