Saw the second part of The Hangover; well it’s not really a second part as it is a retelling of The Hangover. Stu, Phil, and Alan wake up after a crazy night of partying, they do not remember what happened the night before, and they have to find their friend before Stu’s wedding. Basically the same story as the first one; kind of repetitive.
Most of the critics are calling that repetitiveness the film's major flaw and the possible cause of its downfall, but is the repetitive such a bad thing? We all know that this is not the greatest movie series, as in these are not film masterpieces. The Hangover films are a fun time filled with stupid jokes that will make you laugh, and Zach Galifianakis one liners that you will repeat for the weeks following the film’s release. Walking into this film, I didn’t have the highest expectations, I had about the same as I did for the first thinking it was just going to be a funny film, and this is what this is, your basic comedy. The audience shouldn’t expect to see the greatest film they have ever seen when they see these films; just go and have a good time. If you are expecting to see the same as The Hangover, you will not be disappointed. The jokes are hilarious, Galifianakis does not disappoint and *Spoilers* it all wraps up nicely in the end. However, if you are walking into this film expecting a completely different film from the first part, you will be disappointed in the end because the plot is basically the same as the first. However as I stated before, if that is what you want, which is what I expected, it is an enjoyable film.
Final Grade – 7/10
Great Film Aspect – None
Recommendation- If you like The Hangover, and want to see The Hangover in a different setting, go see the film.
