couldn't be any further from the truth IMO.

i honestly don't understand why people are shitting their pants over the hangover. i'd take old school, superbad, wedding crashers, 40 year old virgin and pineapple express over hangover really any day of the week


You're in the .1% of the population that would belive that.

Don't be so sure about that.

With the exception of Pineapple Express (which was just meh to me), I agree with his list. Wedding Crashers was great, but Hangover is arguably as good.

I thought it was hilarious, but maybe the funniest part of the movie is at the very end when they find the camera and look through the pictures.

If we're talking over-rated movies, look no further than Superbad.

I just saw it yesterday, and it had me laughing a good bit. Will it go down as one of the classic comedy movies ever made? No, but still I thought it was as funny, if not funnier, than any of Hollywood's more recent comedy movies.

Mr. Wong was hilarious. The little kid slowmo tasering Alan was pretty good. I could have done without the pics of Alan and the lady in the elevator at the end

For a couple of hours of mindless fun and some laughs, it was good.

Why do people keep comparing The Hangover to Superbad? Ones about 18 year old kids trying to get laid and the other is about 30+ year old guys in Vegas. They aren't really similar as far as what makes them funny

+1
A better comparison is Hangover and Old School

I just saw it yesterday and it had me laughing a decent amount. It was a good funny movie, but Superbad is still a much funnier movie to me.

If I had to choose my top 5 funniest movies..

Superbad
Anchorman
Old School
Hangover
Role Models

How do you agree with his list but then say that the Hangover was as good as Wedding Crashers???

The poster I replied to said he'd take ALL the movies he listed over The Hangover.

That was my .1% comment, there's VERY few people who would put all the movies he listed in front of the Hangover.

The Hangover probably ranks in the middle of all the movies it's being compared to, hence the debate. It all depends on who relates to what better. I just got married and had two crazy bachelor parties spanning four states, so I am a big fan of The Hangover at the moment.

i'd also like to throw in Forgetting Sarah Marshall as a movie that was funnier than The Hangover.


Christ, that gives me about zero confidence in this movie.

I agree the movie is overrated.

The casino scene was terrible and dragged the comedy down a whole rating point. The super gay Asian gangster also was weak. I liked the movie, but it is not in my top 5 comedies of the last 5 years.

I find dark comedies to be funnier than these sorts of trendy films. That's just me. I will still check it out.

I have to see a comedy way more than once to determine its greatness, but TH has potential, i'd go see it again and probably will
