A mild hangover of laughs, still one for 'Hangover' fans

Rating: 6/10 (15 November 2013)

Although laughs are limited in this, compared to it's predecessor, this inevitable sequel is still a fun watch, thanks the chemistry of the actors, or more importantly the Brat Pack. Again they end up in one hell of a bungle, where someone else goes missing, and worse they've landed in Bangkok, the appearances changed somewhat too. I admit the chimpanzee, who like Mr Chow, becomes soul mates with fruit loop, Allen, stole the scenes. It was great to see the wonderful Nick Cassavettes as Tattoo Joe, too. This sequel still works as just scraping by on it's short amount of laughs. It does have it's moments, like in the dressing room of a strip club, the one where the women are packing the wrong equipment down below, as the pack retrace their steps. Too, check out Stu's different lyrical version of Billy's Joel's Allentown. Plus we've got Allen too, more funnier in this one. We have a surprise visit at the end too, appearing at Stu's marriage do, (remember his intolerable ex) from the first one. I did love the end, of course, with Murray Head's song "One night in Bangkok", but that's like a cruel taunt, in view of the hell, the pack have just been through.
