The Hangover

Favorite Movie Quote: "Paging Dr. f*ggot!"

It did take a while though to build up to the point that I was cracking up. The semi-hot straight guy next to me was having the time of his life. Either he has blanked out during a Vegas bachelor (which I have too) or he wishes he can go to Vegas and black out. Consider how fun it's not to black out in Vegas I'm guessing he was living vicariously through these guys. And really anyone can live through these guys because they were unique in their own way. Bradley McCreamy Cooper did a great job playing the smooth talking bad boy that you actually don't find annoying or off-putting. And what's a Bradley Cooper movie without giving just enough skin for us to enjoy. Ed Helms, of the Office, is great to watch as he goes through the biggest arc in character and becomes the guy you root for. Then out of nowhere comes Zach Galifianakis as the odd man out. You can tell he was the kid who was a little bizarre growing up. He probably had no friends and became a loner not by choice. Then as an adult he learned to let himself out the shell with insane party styles. Well when you put that all together he made for some funny ass gags in this film. But he was more than the jokes guy because you kinda fall in love with the guy who just wants to add more wolves to his pack of two, cuz first there was me and then you came and that's two and now we have four. You'll have to see it. The beginning of their adventure seemed a bit typical but once they threw in a very pissed gaysian played with ridiculous balls by Ken Jeong, a former Heavyweight champion, and flash and dash appearances by a classic Vegas crooner and a fire crotch prop comedian you're dealing with serious popcorn spillage in your seat. Keep an eye out for Ken because he's been in some recent comedy gems including Pineapple Express. So if you see a film with him in it you should def see it. Heather Graham was adorable and giving us some serious flashing. So everyone in the audience got a bit of skin they could enjoy. In the end it wasn't cheesy to see these guys grow a little closer and show us how a real bachelor party is done. Although, as fun as it was I'm not sure a Hangover 2 is in order. Can't studios let certain movies rest? I mean look at Legally Blonde, helleaux..

Paging Dr. F-a-g-g-o-t!

So, how did you determine that the semi-hot guy sitting next to you was straight?

And, of course, when you're straight Hangover is the natural choice for a 'date-flick'...... Yes..... Very cute.
