The Hangover Movie Review 41

This comedy is directed by Todd Phillips who also directed Starsky and Hutch, Old School and Road Trip. It stars Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms, Zach Galifianakis, Justin Bartha and Heather Graham.

The movie begins with a guy called Doug(Bartha) who is getting married in two days. His pals decide that they are going to arrange a bachelor party for him in Vegas. His pals are Phil(Cooper) who is a teacher who is married with kids, Stu(Helms) who is controlled by his bitchy girlfriend,Alan(Galifianakis) who is soon to be his brother in law and who is a bit strange. Stu lies to his girlfriend Melissa(Rachael Harris) as he is afraid to tell her the truth. She has already cheated on Stu and he forgives her which makes the other guys want to shake him.
They arrive in Vegas and they book a villa in the very posh Caesars Palace. They get ready for a night on the town and they go up to the roof of the hotel to have a drink and to celebrate Doug's coming wedding. We see them the next morning and the villa is wrecked. Everything is broken and the guys are on the floor. There is a tiger in the bathroom and some woman sneaks out. The strangest thing they find is a baby in the closet. They can't remember a thing about last night and Doug is missing. Stu is missing a tooth. They try to retrace their steps from last night and to find Doug. There are some hilarious scenes with the tiger and a police car not to mention Mike Tyson! They discover that they were drugged and Alan confesses to putting something in their drink. he thought that it was Ecstasy but it was really a date rape drug which is why they can't recall anything at all.

They discover that Stu got married to a stripper played by Heather Graham(pictured below). They find out that Phil was taken to hospital with concussion. They eventually find Doug who was up on the roof and he is as red as a tomato from being in the sun. The baby belongs to the stripper and Stu finds that he likes her and he arranges to see her again. The guys set off home in a car and they change into their wedding suits on the highway! They make it back for the wedding and everything ends well. Stu finally tells Melissa to take a hike and the guys find Stu's camera with pictures of that night! They see what they got up to!!

I liked this movie and there were some great laughs. It is one of the best comedies I have seen in a while. I hear that there is going to be a sequel , so I will be looking forward to that! I am going to give this movie a 9/10. Very funny stuff!!!!
