The Take
Skip The Last Hangover. The 44-minute Netflix special mocks the Last Supper as a drunken mess with a missing Jesus, a tiger in the bathroom, and apostles piecing together the night like The Hangover.
It prioritizes irreverence over any story or craft, turning faith into punchlines that only appeal to those who enjoy the mockery.
The Verdict
The Last Hangover exists to offend the devout and amuse the rest with its premise of apostles waking up after a wild Last Supper. The Emmy win proves some audiences reward the audacity, but the execution stays shallow.
Life of Brian handled biblical mockery with sharper wit and less cheap shots. Skip the sacrilege. Watch Life of Brian instead.
