Jun 15 2009'The Hangover', Like Actual Hangovers, Not Affected by John Travolta
For your copybooks, the weekend top five:
1. The Hangover - $33.4 million, another victory for insobriety repercussion comedy!
2. Up - $30.5 million. Thankfully, few tickets were sold to the elderly, saving the group from getting a false, fleeting sense of hope, whimsy, and adventure.
3. The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3 - Only $25 million. I knew they shouldn't have included the poorly-received twist ending where you find out John Travolta is both the villain and the Denzel Washington.
4. Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian - $9.6 million. Now can we stop all this senseless warring over historical exhibit territory?
5. Land of the Lost - $9.2 million, damning Imagine That to 6th place and an afterlife with Meet Dave in an Eddie Murphy Bundle Pack.

I saw both 'UP' and 'The Hangover' this weekend. I'm glad I could help crush Barbarino's box office numbers.

Anyone who would buy that Eddie Murphy Two-Pack doesn't deserve the money they'd be spending on it.

Once upon a time, Eddie Murphy was funny.
I saw the Hangover this weekend. As a whole, it was tamer than I expected it to be. That, and hilarious.

"The Hangover" isn't really a hangover for the producers and the cast!

"Up" is going like a locomotive! All these movies posted here are doing quite allright.

At that moment there was much peace in Heaven, but voices from earth could already be heard. The child, in a hurry, asked softly: "Oh God, if I am about to leave now Please tell my
Angel’s name!"
