As one Yahoo! Movies reviewer said, “Read the review before watching! Don’t take children, don’t take uptight or prudish guests, don’t take a date with delicate sensibilities, and we won’t need to see any more appalled posts for what is truly a bawdy, funny film.” I saw boys around 11 or 12 coming out and was a tad surprised. At 11 or 12, I would have thought this was hilarious, but hopefully would not have understood what a lot of it was about. There is every kind of reference to drug use, prostitution, and drunken “good times” you can imagine in a setup that screams “the best, most memorable times of your life are when you are so high on something that you can’t remember what you did.”
That said, if you liked Something About Mary, you”re bound to love this movie. It will keep you on the edge of your seat laughing or waiting for what surprise will come next. It wouldn’t be fair to list them all and ruin it though the previews make explicit reference to a baby, a tiger, and a chicken. 
The Hangover is the tale of two friends and a brother-in-law-to-be who take a groom to Las Vegas for a bachelor party just days before the wedding. After toasting “a night they’ll always remember,” they wake up in a trashed hotel suite with no idea what happened the night before and with no idea what has happened to the groom. Thus begins their odyssey to put the pieces back together, key elements of which are the baby and the tiger.
The cast, including Ed Helms, Zach Galifianakis, and Bradley Cooper is superb, as are cameos by Rob Riggle from The Daily Show and Mike Tyson.
