To be honest, it has been years since I have seen this flick but it was really weak, I don’t think I will waste my time again with this flick. Of course, you might argue that, with such a title, there was no way that this movie could have been worth anything but I really disagree. In fact, I actually loved the concept but, unfortunately, it was just really poorly developed and the result was rather cringe-inducing. The biggest mistake they made was to go for a PG13 rating. Sure, from a financial point of view, it is always smarter to go for this rating to reach a wider audience but this material should have been obviously R rated. Then, the second problem was that they assumed that if these characters are stoners then it means that they should be really stupid as well which is a really poor assumption. On top of that, it’s always a problem when you try to make a comedy about some stupid characters (see also ‘Dumb & Dumber’, a so-called masterpiece in this genre), most of the time, these characters never become fun and entertaining, they just remain annoying to behold. Finally, the last problem was that Ashton Kutcher and Seann William Scott were both seriously underwhelming. To conclude, I won’t go more into details, the whole thing was just really lame and it is not worth a look.

FIRST IMPRESSIONS
To cut right to the point, this movie sucks! Big time!
I've heard people say that The Hangover is basically a remake of Dude, Where's My Car? Well, they're right: it's more or less the same formula. Two guys wake up, can't remember a thing about the previous night, and discover increasingly just how much they got up to. But the characters' goal here is paper-thin, and none of their actions are in any way fun.
As you can probably guess, I really don't like these characters. They're obviously trying to cash in on the 90s stoner craze, but they fall completely flat. Doesn't help any that the acting across the board is God-awful!
On top of that, the movie just isn't funny. It's not painfully unfunny, though; I was mostly just sitting there indifferent. Except for several times when the movie keeps extending the same joke to the point where it gets torturously repetitive. Even more maddening is that those extended jokes are the only reason the movie barely passes the eighty-minute mark!
For most of the movie, I wasn't really mad at it: just bored. Until the last twenty minutes, that is, when the movie plummets off a fucking cliff! Without actually giving away the ending, let's just say shit flies off the deep end so drastically that it just makes you slap your forehead – hard! It's a jaw-droppingly stupid climax!
There's really nothing else worth mentioning with this movie. It just sucks. It's just two really unlikable people doing really uninteresting things, and there isn't a single gag that works.
My rating: 30%
