The Hangover Trailers

When three friends finally come to after a raucous night of bachelor-party revelry, they find a baby in the closet and a tiger in the bathroom. But they can't seem to locate their best friend, Doug – who's supposed to be tying the knot. Launching a frantic search for Doug, the trio perseveres through a nasty hangover to try to make it to the church on time.

Reviews
Claire Dunne One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.
Yash Wade Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.
Ginger Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.
Roxie The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
cricketbat The Hangover is entertaining, but it's not as funny as everyone makes it out to be. The movie plays a continual game of "top that" where the next piece to the puzzle has to be more outrageous than the previous one - and it gets kind of boring after awhile.
kristingarrisonlv Anyone that doesn't like this movie has no sense of humor and should stick to rom-coms or documentaries!
Barbouzes I did not laugh much watching this movie: the very few women in this script are presented as either shrews or whores (Heather Graham, what was your agent thinking when he booked you into this trash?!) and the men are hardly better treated, being all nincompoops and/or drunkards. Raunch and vacuity combined with bad writing and an abject storyline? Yes, 14 years-old and frat boys of all stripes, rejoice! I am not 14 years old, and offensive or demeaning material don't make me laugh. No, I could find not one hint of redeeming value to this rancid piece of "entertainment". For genuine and lasting laughs, may I suggest Groundhog Day, A Night at the Opera, Swingers, Bread And Chocolate, Some Like it Hot, L.A Story, or.. well, anything but The Hangover, really!
Stephen Bird Could "The Hangover" be one of the greatest comedies of all time, I truly believe so! A red hot film that sets out to achieve what can only be described as immortality..., how many young men these days fantasise about the ultimate night, with the most extreme possibilities becoming a startling reality? The answer is most of them, what "The Hangover" has done is taken every element that is considered 'cool' or 'awesome' and thrown them together into a pot (the pot of course being the film); it's dazzling, it makes your heart race at a thousand miles per hour, it makes you want to be part of the film itself... ...Bingo!Each and every viewer is invested. Regardless of age, gender or creed, you cannot deny that "The Hangover" isn't a fine piece of film making.The acting is sublime, each of the four protagonists bring something different to the table; you have the stupid and simple Alan, the cool and trendy Phil, the geeky and put upon Stu, and the level headed and somewhat smart Doug, who just so happens to be the groom. The variation of character contributes to the overall success of the film, their styles are different but their antics end up the same, pure genius!It's pop culture at its most stylish, appealing to a main stream audience, that's why it did so well at the box office, well surpassing the general level of what comedy films average..., it was such a success that two sequels were commissioned making "The Hangover" a trilogy of films. Opulence and elegance take a back seat, this is the modern century at its most disturbing, so buckle up and be prepared for one Hell of a ride!
