Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "The Hangover" in English language version.
The Hangover is like an infernal comedy machine. Surrender your soul to its foul mesh of cheap cleverness and vulgarity. and you howl like a delighted demon. Resist, and you feel all sense and sensibility being crushed in its cogs.
Amusing as it is, it never feels real.
That may not seem like a big deal - a lot of funny movies play by their own rules - except that "The Hangover" keeps doubling-down on the outlandishness.
The other cool thing is that the story of the movie is three guys kind of gradually becoming a lot closer and bonding, and that narrative actually informed our friendship—or the other way around. As you spend 14 hours a day together for three months, you see a lot of sides of somebody. We went through the wringer together, and that shared experience really made us genuine buddies. And I think you see that onscreen somewhat.

I did meet with Lindsay Lohan a little bit [before casting Heather Graham], and we talked. Honestly, it felt like she ended up being too young for what we were talking about. People love to attack her for everything, like: "Ha, she didn't see how great The Hangover was going to be. She turned it down." She didn't turn it down. She loved the script, actually. It really was an age thing.

Mr. Phillips does not always get his way. For a scene in which a police officer tests his stun gun on the guys, the director wanted his actors to be shot with a live Taser. "He goes, 'Look at these clips on YouTube,' " Mr. Galifianakis said. " 'It doesn't hurt that much.' And then the Warner Brothers lawyers stepped in, thank God."
The film, which features three men trying to piece back together a drunken night in Las Vegas, has been criticised by many for misogynistic undertones.
Tyson added that the pic "started me on a good path to a healthy life."
The trailers and TV spots suggest it's just another beer-and-boobs, party-hearty farce, but "The Hangover" is surprisingly clever as well as R-rated rowdy.
