I had putting seeing this movie off for a long time but last night, I went to a screening of Public Enemies, but the line was just plain stupid, so my brother and I decided to see the Hangover instead. It was as advertised. I thought it was hysterical. I'm not a huge fan of drunk or stoner humor, but I really liked this flick. The characters had great chemistry and worked really well off each other.

The end credits was priceless, seeing the guys doing rails with Carrot Top just put me over the edge. Also the dude getting the hummer in the elevator.....awesome.

If we're comparing the Hangover with all the recent comedies of the same kind of ilk, I would put the Hangover as number 2. These are my fav comedies of lets say the LAST 5 YEARS.

40 Year Old Virgin
The Hangover
Clerks 2
Knocked Up
Superbad
Zack and Miri Make a Porno
Dodgeball.....not great, had its moments, really shouldn't be on the list.

I loathed Old School, Starsky and Hutch, and wasn't really fond of Forgetting Sarah Marshall.....FSM had its moments, Russel Brand was hilarious, but I felt it was a tad long and took too long to get to the funny bits.......but the worst comedy of the last few years has to be Pineapple Express. I thought it was brutal. I get high once in awhile, so I get the humor, but I really didn't find it funny and I found myself wanting to turn it off during the last hour. Not funny and I'm a huge Seth Rogen fan.
