This movie was obviously written for five year olds. Amusing at best. Manages to combine plain bad taste in places with weirdness in others.

Not one. The main characters (and actors) I am 48 years old and have watched thousands of movies and this is definitely one of the worst I have ever seen. It's a unique new invention: a "comedy" without a single laugh in it. Literally. Not one. The main characters (and actors) are all thoroughly unlikeable and even the cameo roles make the actors look bad. I'm not opposed to a good raunchy comedy now and then (I thought Funny People was really enjoyable), but I don't think there's anything funny about having one character call another Dr. Faggot. Or about the wincingly mean-spirited character who manages to combine both homophobic and anti-Asian stereotypes. The writing and directing are so leaden and clunky that it seems truly amazing that these guys have actual working film careers. One of the main characters is a dentist who pulls out his own tooth--if you want to know what that feels like, go see this godawful flick. Don't believe the good reviews--this steaming pile of crap makes Plan 9 From Outer Space look like Citizen Kane.… Expand

However, this is the most consistently hilarious movie I have seen in years.

What sets it apart from other comedies is, in my opinion, the dialogue (and singing parts). It's much wittier than you usually see in movies such as these, and I would not be surprised to find out that many lines were improvised.

Pretty damn funny. This may be one of the very few movies I actually see twice in the theater.

Seemingly being THE comedy film of the summer...I was excited going into this film because I found the trailers and TV spots to be hilarious, so I could only imagine what the entire film would be like...and it dosen't dissapoint. For Seemingly being THE comedy film of the summer...I was excited going into this film because I found the trailers and TV spots to be hilarious, so I could only imagine what the entire film would be like...and it dosen't dissapoint. For the most part, this is your standard vulgar comedy that tosses out decency in favor of something far more crude...and often times these films work very well (if the Box Office performance is any indication). The story is simple...4 guys go to Vegas for a bachelor party, the most important one of the bunch turns up missing after a (very) wild night of partying, the other 3 go on a wacky "quest" to remember what happened and fine their friend. It's a very straight forward formula...but a perfect one in the sense that there is A LOT you can do with a premise like, and they don't waste a minute of it. It moves along very fast like a roller coaster of comedy and rarely lets up till the rather filthy conclusion in the form of pictures. Films like this are a lot of fun...any road trip film featuring a bunch of guys with good chemistry and seemingly the desire to get in a bunch of trouble is sure to be if anything, watchable...and The Hangover does this perfectly. The characters are interesting in the most obnoxious of ways and they DO come off like a group of buddies in over their heads in Sin City. That being said...this is a delightfully raunchy summer comedy with "likeable" characters and an excellent forumla that seemingly works and works. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.… Expand

not as great as the reviews would have you believe. its ok, funny in spots, but poorly constructed...more like a series of theme-related sketches than an actual story...2/3 of the second act could have been excised and the story would still not as great as the reviews would have you believe. its ok, funny in spots, but poorly constructed...more like a series of theme-related sketches than an actual story...2/3 of the second act could have been excised and the story would still have made sense. end credit sequence was a laff riot tho.… Expand

This was one of the funniest movies I have seen in a while. The end has a great twist that ties the whole movie together. There were very few parts that we kind of boring but the result was always an hysterical laugh!

If I could give this movie a 20 I would. Far and away the funniest movie I've seen in years. I haven't laughed this hard and consistently since Jackass 2.0 and Borat came out. I'm not sure how anyone could not rate this a 10!!!

Overall a good movie, started off slow but sure gets going near the end. The credits iare the best part of the film. You wonder the entire time what happened in Vegas and you get the best part for last.

The funniest movie of the year by far. All I can say to America is that if you get this movie to make $150 million, then you will be forgiven for Paul Blart: Mall Cop.

I went with two friends, who both thought it was hilarious, but most of the jokes were over the top or taken from similar movies of this kind. The acting seemed a bit over done; however, Bradley Cooper in a black suit and aviators did not disappoint. Overall, I would say wait until the movie comes out on DVD, don't bother spending the $15 to see it in theaters.… Expand

Relying on cheap gag scenes and rarely on witty clever dialogue it gets old real quick and part of you keeps waiting for something hilarious to ensue.

Although "Hangover" turned out not to be the 10 my wife and I had hoped for, we found ourselves howling loudly at the many hilarious scenes. We are not fans of raunchy and vulgar movies, but this one at least kept most of the raunch just on Although "Hangover" turned out not to be the 10 my wife and I had hoped for, we found ourselves howling loudly at the many hilarious scenes. We are not fans of raunchy and vulgar movies, but this one at least kept most of the raunch just on the adult side of juvenile which made it not only a little more tolerable, but actually amusing. However all the enjoyable humor of the movie instantly dissolved, and every decent bone in our bodies was violated when disturbing pornographic images appeared along with the movie credits. Whether or not they liked the movie, every critic should have issued a warning about these images. Despite one critic writing, "you WANT to stick around for the credits ... and you don't mind one bit," the last thing we wanted to see was an explicit image of a woman performing oral sex. If it can be assumed that the majority of movie audiences who can tolerate some level of vulgarity, would welcome grotesque pornography, then we had better reexamine our values as a society.… Expand

I'm not going to tell you it's badly made - because, for what it sets out to do, I don't think it is. I just stop laughing at jokes rooted in shock after the first few, and I start wanting for variety. The Baltimore review puts it well - if you start to resist this movie at any point, or hope for it to resolve into something with some kind of emotional payoff, you'll just feel frustrated. This movie knows its ambitions, and if grossout humor (even well-executed grossout humor by talented comic actors) isn't your bag, don't be fooled by the high score, you'll leave with a bad taste in your mouth.… Expand

This movie is unrelentingly funny. If you didn't like it you are a truly dull individual. Nowadays it's very difficult to top what has already been done and Hangover does just that. The bar has been pushed.

From start to credits, I laughed with few pauses. Where other comedies have failed, The Hangover doesn't treat the plot as a to-do list to run through after the gags are done, it keeps it fun and involved.
