New Moon is nothing if not an international advertisement for the hungry virtues of virginity and young people can’t get enough of it

Too long and drawn out but very entertaining with excellent special effects
This is a peculiar play and does not work for me. Some of it is very funny but there are real flaws
Alex has a strong powerful voice and was faultless, she is far better now than she was on the X-Factor

Dir: Todd Phillips.
Cast: Bradley Cooper, Heather Graham, Jeffrey Tambor, Ken Jeong, Justin Bartha, Rachael Harris
Description: Two days before he walks down the aisle with his beautiful bride, Doug heads for Las Vegas with his three best buddies, Phil, Stu and Alan. Several hours of heavy drinking and wild partying ensue and in the morning, Phil, Stu and Alan wake with pounding headaches and no memory of events of the night before. A trashed hotel suite and the presence of a mystery baby are the first signs that something is dreadfully wrong; the absence of the groom-to-be is a close second. As the three friends retrace their alcohol-fuelled steps, they realise how much trouble they are in.
Country: US. 2009. 99mins
Airheads: Stu (Ed Helms) and his new friend, Jade (Heather Graham)
Four men, one of whom is about to be hitched, go on a stag outing to Las Vegas.
However, when they consume what they think is a relatively harmless drug they find it obliterates their memories.
They wake up the next morning in a $4,000 hotel suite with a tiger in the bathroom, a baby in the closet, a bubble bath full of inflatable sex toys and a smouldering sofa. They’ve also lost the bridegroom (Justin Bartha).
We gradually find out what happened as they try to find him.
I won’t tell you too much, but you should know that Mike Tyson is the owner of the tiger and contributes an amiable cameo during which he sings a song and only delivers one punch.
Todd Phillips’s film is funny, sharply written and well acted by Bartha, Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms and Zach Galifianakis, but in the end it runs out of steam.
Its subject is men who revert to adolescence when given half a chance but it hasn’t the guts to criticise these terrible dorks and presents the few women in its cast, like the silly, golden-hearted prostitute (Heather Graham) and the ball-breaking girlfriend (Rachael Harris), as equally laughable.
