Review: ‘Hangover’ is not painful, but won’t linger

Is loopy dental kid video funny — or disturbing?

If young David DeVore’s loopy, out-of-body ramblings while feeling the effects of a dentist’s anesthesia were a prime-time TV show, he would land squarely in the Top 10 — between “60 Minutes” and “Grey’s Anatomy.” But the parents of the 8-year-old viral video sensation say they realize there’s a fine line between cuteness and exploitation.
