Hands down, The Hangover is one of the funniest movies I’ve ever seen. It’s consistently funny from beginning to end and barely gives you enough time to breathe between laughs. The previews for this movie just don’t do it any justice at all. They make it look like it could really go either way, cheesy and stupid or testicle-explodingly funny. It is strictly the latter.

The Hangover is funny in the same kind of way that Old School and Wedding Crashers are funny the first time you see them. If you wait to see this, you are making a mistake. I don’t even know what else to say. Just see it.

The movie aside, my trip to see this last night was further enhanced by a potentially awkward as hell situation. Even though it was a Sunday night, the theater got a bit crowded, by the time the previews had started, there were only a few good seats left. Two of which were next to me on the left. My girlfriend was sitting on my right. So into the first trailer, I notice two people shuffling down the row to get to the open seats next to me. I thought the girl looked a little familiar, but it was dark so I didn’t think much of it…until she sat down next to me and I realized it was my ex-girlfriend with her new dude. Now, we dated for quite some time and are still good friends, but we have spent minimal time around each other with our new significant others. Had we had a really bad breakup, this could have been an awful situation. I mean, how much more random can things be? Of all the theaters in the area, all the movies currently out, all the showtimes available, and all the seats in the theater, what are the odds that this happens? It’s like an FML, except not.
