The Hangover Part 2...Or Remake of Hangover 1?

Well well well, if it isn't the sequel to the move that got The Dead Siskels going in the first place. Time has passed and The Hangover has gone up in our books, however not anything near what Old School was, but still a fairly good movie ride.


Enter Part II. The movie is just a complete remake of the same exact things that happen in the first one. Only thing different is the location and a few utterly random characters. The same jokes, the same actions, the same exact story!! It boggles the mind to think that anyone will say this was a great movie at all. I did laugh a few times but that alone does not make for a good movie, hell, not even a decent movie.


Thumbs Down:
  • Too much penis, not enough boob....Even women will agree I think.
  • Same exact jokes, I could even guess what I was suppose to be laughing at before it happened.
  • I guessed where the "missing person" was long before we reached that eureka point.
  • The scenes (although in a new location) were so predictable that nothing seemed fresh at all.
  • Chow was so fucking annoying, I wish he had died!
  • Not enough Paul Giamatti.
  • Bangkok is not as funny as you think it is, no matter how many times you say it. 




Thumbs Up:
  • Had a few pretty good laughs.
  • Managed to kill some time before I had to go do something else.

In the end this movie was a dud, just trying to strip a few more of your hard earned dollars away from you with the promise of a funny movie and a good time. This movie is no "Part II" as it claims, stay home and just re-watch The Hangover and imagine it's full of Asians, a monkey, Mike Tyson singing karaoke, and tiny penises.

2 - Stars
