"The Hangover"
Like modern horror and slasher films, comedies just keep pushing the envelope in terms of what ridiculous ways they can come up with to make you laugh. It had been a while since I saw a comdey in the theaters, and although I was pretty entertained by The Hangover, I felt like I had seen the film before. Todd Phillips always comes up with creative storylines, but it seems his genre is coming to an end. In any case, it's one of those movies where the funniest moments will settle in with extra viewings, but not sure if that will happen anytime soon.

i've seen it twice now, and the second viewing wasn't nearly as good because the key element of surprise was gone.
ReplyDeleteThere was lots of room for improvement to make the film funnier. It did not live up to my expectations...
