lastvegas_2sIf you like ensemble comedies then Last Vegas is for you. It stars Micheal Douglas as Billy, Robert De Niro as Paddy, Morgan Freeman as Archie, Kevin Kline as Sam, Mary Steenbuger as Diana, Jerry Ferrrara as Dean, and Romany Malco as Lonnie.

Last Vegas  is about 4 longtime friends (Billy,Paddy,Archie and Sam) who when the last to  get married is about to, they head to Las Vegas for the bachelor party.

Last Vegas is a hilarious ensemble comedy. While it is formulaic in some plot elements, it is still hilarious making use of it’s great cast and surpsing heartfelt moments.

What makes this movie so funny is the cast and the jokes. The jokes are a steady hilarious stream with some hysterical moments. What makes them even funnier, is the cast. They are all on top form with fantastic comedic timing and chemistry. They bounce off each other great and make for a great comedy.

The only problem is that some plot elements are formulaic and you know where they are going to go. On the other hand, some of the other places the story goes are more heartfelt with the friendship and helping each other out that elevate the movie from another Las Vegas comedy. It elevates it to a hilarious heartfelt comedy that is rare to see in theaters. Overall, Last Vegas is a hilarious ensemble comedy with 4 actors all on the top of their game that is also heartfelt.

Last Vegas is rated PG-13 for sexual content and language. I give Last Vegas a Vegas B+.
