The Hangover
7 April 2023
I remember seeing the trailer for "The Hangover" a few months before it's cinematic release and I remember thinking it looked funny, and also that they probably stacked the trailer with all the best parts of the film.

Turns out I was wrong. Way wrong. Todd Phillips is a genius. He has helmed possibly the funniest movie I have ever seen. Literally every scene is funny. There were many occasions I was hurting from laughing so hard. Me and everyone else in the cinema the three times I saw it.

Ed Helms, Bradley Cooper, Justin Bartha and Zach Galifianakis (who steals every scene he is in) are brilliant as The Wolf Pack Stu, Phil, Doug and Alan. Ken Jeong is instantly memorable as Mr Chow and who doesn't love Heather Graham? Mike Tyson's cameo is amazing. Rob Riggle's bit part is also fantastic.

A wickedly funny script by Jon Lucas and Scott Moore tells the story of a Las Vegas Bucks Night From Hell.

Just brilliant stuff. Just as funny now as it was fourteen years ago.
