Same Story, Different... Nothing...

Rating: 5/10 (16 September 2012)

I understand that sequels are very rarely anywhere near as good as their originals, however The Hangover Part II had pretty much the same story line as the previous film. There's a wedding. Alan drugs the others. They can't remember what happened the previous night. Somebody goes missing. An animal is in their room when they wake up. The mystery slowly unravels as they discover various clues. Stu sleeps with a prostitute. Stu sings a song about all the bad things that had happened. They accidentally steal something off of a criminal. They find their friend in a peculiar place. The wedding continues as planned after they arrive last minute. Mike Tyson appears again for no apparent reason. They find pictures of everything that happened, which are shown in the credit. They are probably many more things that I haven't mentioned, however that isn't the point. If it wasn't for Alan and Mr. Chow making me laugh constantly this would be a pointless film.
