It was not great....but a good ending.

Rating: 4/10 (22 December 2013)

I would like to first say that this was not a terrible movie. In fact, it was decent for what it was. Would I recommend it...maybe, just to say you saw it once but I won't be watching it again. I think this movie was a good ending to the trilogy because of the kind ending. Despite that I disliked Allen for the majority of all the films because of his sheer stupidity, it felt rather nice to see that he as well gets married in the end just like the rest of the wolf pack. Now having that said.....This movie should not have been called "The Hangover III" because there was no hangover. No one got drugged which should have been the transition point to main plot of the story. In the first they get drugged, have crazy night in Vegas and save Doug. Second, the get drugged, have crazy night in Bangkok and save the brother of the bride. The first 2 had them lose their memories, loose a friend and had weddings to get too, the third one was more of an action film if anything. There were very little jokes, it was more serious if anything and Chow wasn't funny either. The whole film was a chase, there were very few opportunities for some creative comedy. Having them meet interesting side characters in the others was good, like the monk or the hooker. I wouldn't say it was overly boring because it kept my interest enough to the point that I wanted to see them succeed in the end, but there was so much more they could do. This film should have been about having a bachelor part for Allen, if they could have found someway to have done that, it would have been better. This was a poor film all on its own...but for a trilogy being based on 4 guys getting drugged, you can't expect a masterpiece. It did what it could, it ended on a good note and I myself am happy that is finally over. If you loved the first 2, you will hate this one. I didn't complain to much just because it wasn't horrible, just...not really good. I give it a 4 out of 10 for not being the worst film in the world and it kept my interest, but it was unfunny, uncreative and overall could have been done better.
