The Hangover is a very funny movie with several parts in the movie that made me laugh out loud for quite a while, my friends too and the whole audience also obviously really enjoyed it. This movie is better than most of the new comedies I've seen in the last couple years or so. The performances are good with all of the actors knowing their roles and getting really good laughs with the parts they've been given. On the down side there are a few parts where they go for too easy a joke or a joke you can see coming, or where the movie drags without any laughs for a while, but all things considered this is still well worth seeing if not at the movies then rent it when it comes out on DVD.
I never even heard of Space Patrol until a couple weeks ago when we went out for a movie and one of my friends gave me a disc of episodes, saying I had to watch it. It was definitely a lot of fun! It was not a very good show and definitely looks and feels very old, I'm not sure how much people would have enjoyed it back in the fifties or sixties when it was first on television but it's very campy with bad production values and hammy acting, and you definitely don't want to miss the puppetry, but the show is still a lot of fun. I know it's mostly laugh at it not with it kind of fun but still worth checking out if you can track it down.
This movie was better than I thought it would be since most Jean Claude Van Damme movies I've seen since about 1995 have just sucked it. Van Damme and Scott Adkins are okay but this movie still is no better than the average Van Damme flick. Director Isaac Florentine, this is probably his fault since Van Damme gives a good performance (yes you read that right he doesn't suck in this movie). But his fighting is slowing down because his fight scenes are all just a few kicks and punches with nothing spectacular or anything you haven't seen a hundred times before in other Van Damme movies. The acting is okay and the story is actually pretty good but the fight scenes are below average and the directing is not very good.
