The Hangover Part II (2011)

Sadly Over-hyped

One of my all time favorites.

Excellent adaptation.

Boring

Never a dull moment while the Wolfpack is over in Thailand- not Vegas. The insanity has gone international this time. Was a tad surprised to not see higher ratings here on IMDb- this is clearly the best out of the 3 Hangover movies. It does help if you have seen the first one or you will be a tad lost So if you haven't seen the Hangover (The first one) then watch it before you see this one. All of the original cast from the first one returns for this sequel. But fair warning; they don't hold back on ANYTHING! This one pushes it to the limit, which is part of what makes it so great. Not for the easily offended- nothing is sacred in this one. Down right raunchy at times but full of laughs and many surprises from beginning to end.

I think this movie is great.Alan confesses that he had drugged some of the marshmallows from the previous night with muscle relaxants and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder medication in order to sedate Teddy but accidentally mixed up the bags! All of them got high and gone wild.They don't ever know what they doing when they woke up.And they finding his friend's brother in law who name teddy. Then they found him in the elevator because Bangkok usually blacked out. But Teddy's middle finger was cut off. The Character that i liked the most is Mr.Chow. He's the Asian guy, he's really funny and wildest one. Also I liked Alan too. He's pretty funny. I liked to recommend you watch this movie.It's a really awesome.

This time around, Phil (Bradley Cooper), Alan (Zach Galifianakis), and Doug (Justin Bartha) actually fly all the way to Thailand where Stu (Ed Helms) is getting married. Still stinging from their Vegas adventure, Stu decides to have his bachelor party at an IHOP; unfortunately, it doesn't turn out that way. Just like the first movie, we see the guys raise their glasses and then we see them after another party. This time, Phil and Alan are on the floor, Alan's hair is gone, and Ed is passed out in the bathtub with a tattoo on his face. Oh, and Stu's 16-year old future brother-in-law is missing.Clearly, director and co-writer Todd Phillips was given a lot bigger budget this time around and the money can be seen on the screen. Beautiful Thailand locations are a plus, but the whole thing could have just as well have taken place in Vegas. This story would have worked in Vegas or Manhattan or anywhere local...I guess the idea of bringing the boys to Thailand was supposed to make the proceedings more substantial, but it still seems to be much to do about nothing.The actors still work well together, with standout work from Helms and Galifianakis and there's a scene stealing turn from a cigarette smoking monkey, and Ken Jeong's character redefines the word annoying, but if you liked the first film, you will probably like this one too.

The movie doesn't really have anything new to present. It basically runs on the first movie's story and characters. It just changed the location setting from Las Vegas to Bangkok. It sure is quite nice to have a different location and culture influencing the story. But seriously, the plot is simply the same, right to the very details. The only difference in the plot is that this time it is Stu's wedding instead of Doug's, and this time Doug didn't get into trouble. But having everything work out just as the first movie did is just boring. Fortunately this time the comedies are a bit better. We get to see hilarious craziness in them. The ladyboy, everything with Chow, and of course the monkey, are the things that made the comedies worth laughing at. Particularly the monkey is the funniest of those gimmicks.. The acting overall is just as the same as the first movie, if not lower. Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms and Zhac Galifianakis successfully reprised their respective designated roles.
