While You were Sleeping

Once in a while comes a low budget movie that literally sweeps you off your feet. While I cannot in all honesty accord such generous description to The Hangover, this is unqualified wholesome entertainment. After a long time comes a comedy that does not involve romantic tiffs and goofy slapstick. What makes The Hangover stand out is that a lot of the audience can relate to the overall theme, and the escapades are hilarious without being ludicrous. There is also the element of unraveling the events of the night past step by step, which, while not always consistent, does keep the audience engaged. One of the best comedies going in a while

12.5/20
