Th first movie was very, very overrated, not very funny, but a high concept that worked. The second movie was more of the same, but less funnier. I expected this one to be awful, so my curiosity got the better of me, but I don't know whether its my expectations being lowered to the max, but I actually enjoyed this.
I'd go as far to say that its the best of the series.
It's not a funny movie by any means, and the most annoying character is the pivotal point in the narrative (Chow), but for a movie that's just a silly little diversion, it passes the time.
Helms has a lot less screen time in this movie, and this is a blessing, as his Stuart ruined the first two movies for me, so we have more time with Alan and Cooper.
The plot is more or less an urgent remake of the original, and although Goodmen is quite amiable as the villain, knowing that Downey Jr., and Penn were approached, taints him a little.
So it's not the best movie out there, but compared to the other two movies, it's pretty solid stuff.
Though it's never funny.
