This film is, of course, NOT to be confused with the Gina Gershon cop melodrama of the same name released around the same time. This is one of those multi-star flicks. Even Mike Tyson--yes, THAT Mike Tyson--has a cameo (even though most people believe The Hangover was his movie debut). Anyway, this moive is pretty forgettable, so I'm not going to waste my time going into the plot or anything else about the movie . . . except ONE thing: In the first five minutes of the movie, we get to see the lovely Bijou Phillips (star of the aforementioned Hostel Part II) half-naked in a forest having a threesome with a black guy and another white girl (well, it's not really a threesome since the black guy really doesn't do anything, but, hey, that's all right with me since Bijou and her gal pal do PLENTY, if you know what I mean!). Insert The Simpson's Comic Book Guy's voice here: BEST . . . MOVIE . . . OPENING . . . EVER!!!! And, best of all, Bijou Phillips DOESN'T get her scalp split open with a damned chainsaw! A sidenote: Did you know that The Hangover was actually a rip-off--and, no, I'm NOT making this up!--of a porno movie released a few years before it (and I'm, of course, planning to go into more detail about this in a future review)? Well, I guess comic books aren't the ONLY places where Hollywood is getting its (supposed) ideas from nowadays, huh?
