A lot better the second time around.

THE HANGOVER
I remember watching this when it first came out and I was the only one out of all of my friends that thought it was crap.
The film is about 4 guys who go to Vegas to celebrate a stag party. The problem is, the stag is missing and nobody can remember what went on the night before. There are a lot of things wrong when they wake up the next morning. The stag is missing, the room they are in is wrecked, the dentist is missing a tooth, there is a tiger in the bathroom and they find out they have as police car! Their missing is to now try and retrace their steps to find out where their friend is so they can get him back in time for the wedding.
As I said at the beginning, I have seen this before and was very disappointed. But after watching it again I really liked it this time around. The story is really well planned out. I love the idea of the film starting when it has already all gone wrong. You have no idea, just like the characters, what has happened and it is a great adventure what happened the night before.
I loved some of the twists in the story. It does just keep you laughing throughout. Just when you think it couldn't get worst something else comes to light and you realise it is a lot worse than expected. The characters were not very likable. Every one of them has something about them that makes them the worst friends in the world. But they do stick together and do not stop until they get their friend back. The acting was really good throughout. It makes a change but the casting was perfect. The film stars Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms, Zach Galifianakis, Justin Bartha, Heather Graham and Ken Jeong. There was even a great cameo by Iron Mike Tyson. Mike can't act to save his life and he definitely can't sing but it did add to the comedy in this movie.
The adventure in this film plays along so well that it is a roller-coaster ride to watch. This film is very funny and if you have seen it and didn't like it, watch it again. I liked it a whole lot more the second time around.
I will give this 7 out of 10.
"What do tigers dream of when they take their little tiger snooze? Do they dream of mauling zebras, or Halle Berry in her Catwoman suit? Don't you worry your pretty striped head, we're gonna get you back to Tyson and your cozy tiger bed. And then we're gonna find our best friend Doug, and then we're gonna give him a best friend hug. Doug, Doug, oh, Doug, Dougie, Dougie, Doug, Doug! But if he's been murdered by crystal meth tweakers, well then we're sh*t out of luck."
