The Hangover
Dir: Todd Phillips
2009
***
The Hangover is funny. It made me laugh quite a few times in fact. It isn't, however, as funny as everyone says it is. I thought Zach Galifianakis and Ed Helms were both very good, they obviously have a talent for impromptu comedy but their greatness is often marred by the films unfunny performers, namely Ken Jeong & Rob Riggle. Todd Phillips has grown up as a director but unfortunately there is still a lot of stupid and unfunny 'Frat' humour here that he really needs to rid himself of, without it, The Hangover would have been a much better film.
