Early Reviews on The Hangover and Land of the Lost

Posted by Matt Rosenberg on June 5, 2009 at 6:48 pm

Surprisingly both The Hangover and Land of the Lost have received negative feedback from the world of critics. You know what, who cares.

Most say The Hangover is offensive while Land of the Lost is too cheesy. However, Roger Ebert, one of America’s most articulate and well respected movie critics liked both.  To literally be solo in providing positive feedback on these movies is something I really respect. I think most critics were afraid to give  a positive review on Land of the Lost due to fear of being laughed at.  To hear true honesty is something we, as movie goers, should really appreciate.  And I’m completely stunned about the overall poor reviews on The Hangover.

Ebert says on Land of the Lost…”I raise my voice in a bleat of lonely, if moderate, admiration.” He awards three stars on it…and in reference to the cheesiness of the film he says “a deliberate choice, and I say I enjoyed it.”

Ebert says on The Hangover…”The Hangover

is a funny movie,” he writes, “flat out, all the way through. Its setup is funny. Every situation is funny. Most of the dialogue is funny almost line by line.”

  1. I gotta say I really like The Hangover as well. Just saw it tonight and it surprised me. It was smart and of course silly, but it entertained me.

  2. @Candice Just saw Hangover last night and agree. Very funny film, all scenes had laughs in it. Will be loading the video review for tomorrow. Just not sure if it is as timeless as Old School.
