Day 04--Movie that makes me laugh every time...

This to me, has an insanely obvious answer. The Hangover is undoubtedly my favourite comedy ever, and one of my favourite movies of all time (when I say that, I'm not meaning it is the greatest movie I have ever seen. I just really enjoy watching it). Every time I watch it I still laugh at the same stuff. I guess it has something to do with the fact that I didn't know the actors very well when I watched this, so I didn't know what to expect. You know what to expect from actors like Will Ferrell or Jon Heder. But Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms and Zach Galifianakis are a breath of fresh air. Their jokes are actually funny. That's the best thing about this movie.
And it has a clever storyline. In a funny way, it's like a funny and easy to follow version of Memento...these guys lose their memory and half to piece together the clues to find their buddy. Forget I even made the comparison, that's not very 'cinephile' of me.
What I find surprising is the fact that I have only posted about The Hangover once. Back when I first watched it. I must admit, that post didn't say enough. Okay, so The Hangover isn't some indie comedy or a screwball from the early 30s (though one of my other favourite comedies is It Happened One Night), but there are times where you just can't live for a cinephile's expectations. I enjoy The Hangover every time I watch it, even if it is just a gross out comedy. But it's different from the rest...it's actually funny.
