What do Monks have in common with the KKK?

Rating: 1/10 (29 May 2011)

I'm not one who enjoys spoilers, so I'll try not to give much on the plot. Unfortunately, there's not much new in The Hangover:Part II. If you've seen the movie, then Todd Phillips who is both a co-writer and director, just stole your 12 dollars.
You essentially get the exact plot as the first Hangover. Scene by scene. The only thing that changed was the setting. Instead of Vegas you get Bangkok. All the comedy comes at the expense of stereo types. Asian's with small penis, jokes about Asian women not having breast, or my personal favorite, comparing a Thai monk to the Grand Wizard of the KKK. Let's not mention the fact of buying a black man...but not permanently, just for the night. Also the idea of American children frolicking about Bangkok, taking shots of alcohol, drinking beer, snorting cocaine all while hanging out with transvestites... that type of shock humor just doesn't qualify for comedy. The film gives you the type of laughter you get when you feel uncomfortable, you just don't know it until you leave. When it comes down to it, The Hangover: Part II makes absurd movies like Idiocracy seem completely believable.
