I have to admit, alot of the movie I was thinking...this is eerily similar to Dude Where's My Car. Even the female cop, played an impound officer in Dude.
So, I dunno...maybe it was the high expectations, but I was hoping for more. I also like movies like Old School, Superbad and Knocked up but The Hangover ranked behind all those for me. My girlfriend, who didn't even want to go to the movie, but went on my insistence enjoyed it more than me.

That wasn't so bad!
I went into the movie with lower expectations because I had been burned before by movies that were supposed to be "HILARIOUS" so I guess I was pleasantly surprised.
I do agree with the "Dude, where's my car?" vibe. While many folks I know didn't like that movie, I enjoyed it because I went in knowing it was going to be uber-dumb.
JD is right in saying that you have to be in the right mood for some movies.
