The Hangover Part II (2011)




Two years after the bachelor party in Las Vegas, Phil, Stu, Alan, and Doug jet to Thailand for Stu's wedding. Stu's plan for a subdued pre-wedding brunch, however, goes seriously awry.

Director: Todd Phillips
Writers: Craig Mazin, Scot Armstrong
Stars: Bradley Cooper, Zach Galifianakis, Ed Helms.



Storyline

Stu is getting married. Along with Doug, Phil, and his soon-to-be brother-in-law Teddy, he regretfully invites Alan to Thailand for the wedding. After a quiet night on the beach with a beer and toasting marshmallows by the camp fire, Stu, Alan and Phil wake up in a seedy apartment in Bangkok. Doug is back at the resort, but Teddy is missing, there's a monkey with a severed finger, Alan's head is shaved, Stu has a tattoo on his face, and they can't remember any of it. The wolf-pack retrace their steps through strip clubs, tattoo parlors and cocaine-dealing monkeys on the streets of Bangkok as they try and find Teddy before the wedding.

Movie Reviews:

18 march 2012 |
I felt used after paying to see this movie. Nearly everything about it was awful.

The first half hour was spent reminding us what happened in the first Hangover (as if we forgot) and running through the exact same jokes verbatim..

The next hour was tired, boring, predictable, and pathetic. I couldn't wait for it to end so I could do anything else.

Throughout the movie, the Zach Galifianakis and Ed Helms characters were distorted into such idiotic caricatures of their roles from the original that it was insulting to watch.

Outside of a few funny moments and Ken Jeong's time on screen, this movie about as fun as getting a root canal.
