Ignore the critics!!!

Rating: Null/10 (24 May 2013)

I know what many of you might be thinking, that maybe The Hangover franchise lost steam after the 2nd film, but I assure you that this is the most fitting end to the story that the 1st film deserves. Granted, it doesn't follow the same wedding/party/hangover formula that had us laughing and cringing for the original, but this film delivers laugh after shock after twist after shock after laugh after twist. I just saw the film with a couple of friends and we were laughing our heads off and sharing stunned silence for the whole movie.
For those of you who don't know, the plot is in a completely different style than the previous films and follows Stu, Doug and Phil in their attempt to intervene in Alan's downward spiral when he goes off his medication. As they are taking him to the institution, they are kidnapped by an associate of The Wolfpack's old adversary Mr. Chow. the guy wants what anyone wants from Mr. Chow.....money that he owes them, and threatens The Wolfpack with Doug's life to track down Chow and get the money back. What follows is an action-packed and laugh-filled escapade that takes them from Mexico to Las Vegas in search of Chow and a staggering 40 million dollars in Gold.
Granted, this may not be The Wolfpack's greatest adventure, but it is certainly one to watch. As the title of the review says, ignore the critics. The film may have it's weaknesses but didn't fail to entertain and i'm certainly glad that I spent money on it instead of going to the pub.
