    Storyline

    • Trivia
      No effects or prosthetics were created for Stu's missing tooth. Ed Helms never had an adult incisor grow, and his fake incisor was taken out for the parts of filming where Stu's tooth is missing.
    • Goofs
      The formal name for "roofies" is given as "Ruphylin". The drug is really a trademark brand named Rohypnol, but was changed for the movie because the makers did not want to be associated with the depicted criminal activities.
    • Quotes

      Stu Price: She's got my grandmother's Holocaust ring!

      Alan Garner: I didn't know they gave out rings at the Holocaust.

    • Crazy credits
      First part of the end credits feature a collage of photos showing what happened that night.
    • Alternate versions
      In the UK, on the advice of the BBFC, the photographs of an elderly woman performing oral sex on Alan were blurred in order to reduce the rating from a "18" to a "15". This version was also released on DVD.

    The biggest laugh-out-loud experience in years!
    The Hangover is a riot! I did not think it would be this funny, but it was. It is outrageous, entertaining, crude, vulgar, and even offensive, but man, the best comedy in years. The cast is brilliant, especially Zach Galifianakis, who has given the best performance of the year so far. Rachael Harris was fantastic as such a b-word. The writing and direction are perfect. It really seemed it came from Judd Apatow, and I am glad that Todd Phillips still has some of the humor that he did in Old School. Thank you Todd Phillips for making the best R-Rated comedy of the year, and the funniest film in quite some time (along with the horror-comedy Drag Me To Hell!)The Hangover is quite a ride!
