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. In The Hangover Part II, Phil (Bradley Cooper), Stu (Ed Helms), Alan (Zach Galifianakis) and Doug (Justin Bartha) travel to exotic Thailand for Stu’s wedding. After the unforgettable bachelor party in Las Vegas, Stu is taking no chances and has opted for a safe, subdued pre-wedding brunch. However, things don’t always go as planned. What happens in Vegas may stay in Vegas, but what happens in Bangkok can’t even be imagined.

If you’ve seen The Hangover, you’ve essentially seen The Hangover Part II.  This time around Stu (Ed Helms) is getting married, the wedding with his bride-to-be (Jamie Chung) will be in Bangkok in deference to her parents, and along for the ride are Phil (Bradley Cooper), Doug (Justin Bartha), and much to Stu’s chagrin, Alan (Zach Galifianakis).  Two nights before the wedding, the four guys along with Stu’s future brother-in-law Teddy (Mason Lee) have a drink only to have the original trio wake up in a seedy hotel room with no recollection of the night’s events, new damages to their appearance, a new animal companion (the tiger has been replaced by an adorable monkey), and Teddy has gone missing.  Repeat the shenanigans from the first film but this time it’s in Thailand.

“A DOUBLE SHOT OF PURE COMEDIC GENIUS.” I don’t think so, if this is a comedy then Terminator must be an adventure. This must be for an American teenager audience. Seriously, swearing in front of an new born baby as if it is second nature. How’s that for an educational tip!  The whole idea of getting wasted and not remembering a thing about the night before and then have to get married in 24 hours, that is funny.

The Hangover II is distributed by NuMetro Entertainment
