What happens in Vegas, Stays in Vegas.

That is the theme of this movie, which involves three guys retracing their crazy bachelor’s party in order to find the missing groom (not unlike Dude, Where’s My Car — except a lot more cruder).

I can say that this film was a return to form for director Todd Philips, going back to R-rated territory after two PG-13 films. I can say that the film was quite hilarious at time, with some the biggest laughs saved for the end when we find out exactly what happened during the night (via a series of photos).

The Hangover is hilarious start to a summer filled with (hopefully) great comedies.
