The Hangover

(USA/Germany, 2009, 97 minutes)

Three groomsmen wake up from a riotous bachelor party in Las Vegas with no recollection of what happened last night... and no sign of the groom with 24 hours to go before the wedding. Raucous comedy that never rises to the level of its smart premise but offers some outrageously funny gags along the way.
