Good sequel with plenty of laughs !MINOR SPOILERS!

Rating: 6/10 (19 June 2011)

I had heard many negative things about the 'Hangover Part II' however nonetheless I went and saw it in cinemas 2 weeks after release. The first thing that hit me was the similarity it has with the first one. It starts off with the phone call from Phil telling their friends at the wedding that they really 'f***ed up this time.' From there it follows the same course that the first one did however this didn't affect the quality of the film too much. I believe the story and 'twist' was much smarter and thought out than the first one. However some things such as the quality of the acting, repetitivity and things that just didn't make sense, really brought down the rating from a potential 8 to a 6. Yet this is a must see for all that watched the first one and hopefully Todd Phillips can give us a different and equally funny conclusion to this Trilogy. Story - 7, Some minor loopholes but a fantastic twist in the end. Screenplay - 6, funny but very similar to the first. Cinematography - 7,gives a great perspective of Bangkok and was the high of the film. Acting - 5, Not as good as the first one and at times very unrealistic especially with characters Phil and Stu.
In conclusion 'The Hangover Part II' lived up to expectations but was somewhat downgraded to a 6 due to some unrealistic acting, minor loopholes and repetitivity from the first film. I look forward the third and (hopefully) final chapter in the hangover series and I am interested in seeing where Todd Phillips will take 'three best friends' next time.
