The Hangover

Beloved by almost everyone I’ve talked to. I liked it. I thought it was fine. I laughed. But the set-ups in the first half were funnier than the pay-offs in the second half. And I was frustrated by the many loose ends about which the creators assume we won’t care whether or not they’re resolved. But despite my nitpickiness, I gotta admit, I was really rooting for Ed Helms. I couldn’t wait until he stood-up to his horrible, one-dimensional, emasculating girlfriend (perfectly & courageously conjured-up by Rachael Harris).
