The Hangover Part II was pretty much a straight-up rehash of the first film, and even that was more inventive than Part III. Horrifying.

Pleasant indie drama looks at a family of writers in varying stages of success, who find themselves shaped by love/life experience. Alt-rock influenced s/track, a nice performance from an endearing Kinnear & likable Collins/Lerman chemistry lift it above some inertness and convenience.

In manufactured themed resorts tourists can fearlessly reinvent themselves, their desires at liberty to the programmed stimuli. This is a really cool futuristic thriller from writer/director Michael Crichton about human tinkering with reality, being betrayed by own creations. Paved way for films like THE TRUMAN SHOW & CABIN IN THE WOODS and evolves into a monster film of sorts after opening as a sci-fi/western hybrid.
