brainless and overrated

Rating: 5/10 (25 December 2011)

This movie is completely brainless. I don't think that a movie filled with toilet jokes without a hint of intelligence is necessarily bad. Sometimes it's good to watch something like Down the Periscope, Police Academy or the like. But usually those movies have a corresponding rating on IMDb. I do not see how Hangover is in any way superior to any of the movies of its kind. It is forgettable and bland. I do not say that it is completely unfunny, but neither is it original. If you need to waste about 2 hours of your life, while drinking a couple of beers with friends this movie is not a bad choice (although not the best in my opinion), but you would also not miss a thing if you never watched Hangover.
