10. Screening this film with your sister and her fiancee can be a little creepy considering she has a brother named Alan who is a bit of a loner, has a gut, facial hair, and is spending some time bonding with his soon to be brother-in-law. The whole opening of this film hit a little close to home. (congrats Em & Paul)
9. Letting children wield tazers may lead to disastrous, yet hilarious results.
8. Counting cards is not illegal it's just frowned upon, kind of like masturbating in airplanes.
7. It's a big mistake to call a satchel a 'man-purse'. Satchels are considered way more masculine because Indiana Jones wears one.
6. I'm convinced Director Todd Phillips has a bizarre obsession with hearing wedding singers perform totally inappropriate sexually suggestive songs, or inserting expletives into harmless ones during wedding receptions. Although I must admit turning Total Eclipse of the Heart into a F-bomb laced laugh riot is pretty clever. (see Old School)
5. Even if he is portraying a father, husband, and a school teacher in the same role Bradley Cooper has been, is, and most likely always will play a Douche bag.
4. A sweet yet slightly trashy Heather Graham is a total upgrade when compared to a bitchy and overbearing Rachael Harris.
3. Calling Zach Galifianakis "Fat Jesus" and then watching him take a pummeling is pretty funny stuff, especially to weird Asian crime lords.
2. Tigers love pepper...they hate Cinnamon.
1. Sometimes saving your best material for the end credits can be a stroke of genius.
This is a guy's night out comedy that dosen't loose it's edge. It may not be as suave as Swingers or as heartfelt as Sideways, but it totally works. I just hope you like your comedy the way you take your coffee the next morning after a night of heavy drinking: Black. B+
