Let's Go to the Movies

The Hangover

I chose to watch this because it has been declared as being one of the most successful rated R comedies. Also because a movie with Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms, and Justin Bartha is bound to be funny.

First off I want to say that I was upset that Justin Bartha wasn't in the film that much because he was playing the role of the lost fiance. I have enjoyed Justin Bartha ever since I saw him in National Treasure as Nicolas Cage's sidekick Riley.

My disappointment about Justin Bartha's limited on screen time was made up by the hilarity of Cooper, Helms, and Galifianakis. Though I found it to be very amusing, the movie is not something amazing and it doesn't try to pretend that it is. It is a simple comedy that is able to get big laughs out of people. For movie that doesn't have any big name actors, it has done very well for its self.

Though because of the success of the film, there are now talks of making a sequel. I don't see that turning out well.
