The Hangover
Doug and his three friends head to Vegas, two days before his wedding for a bachelor party they will never forget. The problem is, they can't remember it, nor can they find Doug. They frantically, albeit cluelessly proceed to piece the evidence together in efforts to find their friend in hopes of getting him to the church on time, all the while in awe of the events that they are discovering they were a part of the night before.
I am admittedly embarrassed that I saw this movie. It has several laugh out loud moments nevertheless it does not make up for it's crude, crass and all around foul content. NC-17 would have been a more appropriate rating. It was well cast, well written and did have its funny moments--particularly Zach Galifanakis, who plays Alan, Doug's soon to be brother-in-law, whose comments and all around ignorance are hilarious. Still it was so distasteful that I can't in good conscious recommend it. If you choose to see it, you will laugh, but you will cringe as well.
* 1/2 Not-A-Chance
Rated R (for language, crude sexual dialogue, and nudity)

Here's how you go see this movie. watch everything but the naked guy jumping out of the trunk, and the "camera" scene at the end. That's the part that leaves the most painful memory. I would add that Mike Tyson was in the competition for best actor in this movie, especially the drum solo.
