The Hangover

Two days before his wedding, Doug and his three friends drive to Las Vegas for a blow-out bachelor party they'll never forget. But, in fact, when the three groomsmen wake up the next morning, they can't remember a thing. For some reason, they find a tiger in the bathroom and a six-month-old baby in the closet of their suite at Caesars Palace.

The film does have a few laughs but overall, another nail in the coffin of these endless lads go wild genre pieces. The inclusion of a cameo from Mike Tyson is a mystery, it brings nothing to the film. These adolescent comedies that are being produced by Hollywood are the norm at the moment, look at for the likes of both 'Role Model' and 'Sex Drive'. The sad thing is the group of guys in the film work well together, but the Las Vegas hedonist image has been done before but better.

The most overrated comedy and possibly film of 2009.

Gangster No 1

Chronicles the rise and fall of a prominent and particularly ruthless English gangster.

Director Paul McGuigans follow up to the surreal film 'The Acid House' is very much your standard rise and fall gangster film which have paved the genre for many years.

'Gangster No 1' is famous for Paul Bettany's debut performance but apart from a few impressive scenes involving the actor, the stand out being between Bettany and Eddie Marsan in Marsan's kitchen which is impressive.

Bettany doesn’t really have much to do. The best acting goes to the brilliant Eddie Marsan.

Overall 'Gangster No 1' is allot of style and very little originality, as well as the viewer never really caring for these nasty gangsters and other dull characters.
