Comedy Alan (Zach Galifianakas), Stu (Helms) and Phil (Bradley Cooper) awake in another hotel room, unable to remember what's gone down. Again. But this time they're in Thailand with Doug (Justin Bartha), with the trail of mayhem taking in monks, monkeys, a schlong of ladyboys... and Chow, of course.

	Author	Review
United States	Peter Travers Rolling Stone	"Take the same ingredients, add a new location – Bangkok replaces Vegas – and history repeats itself. Except it doesn't. The Hangover Part II isn't a total bummer (...) Rating: ★★ (out of 4)"	NEU
United Kingdom	Nick De Semlyen Empire	"According to Phillips, the 'Part II' in the title is a nod to the second Godfather, which matched the genius of its forerunner. Ironically, his own sequel offer is one you should refuse. (...) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEG
United States	Andrew Barker Variety	"The rote professionalism on display verges on cynicism, and despite some occasional sparks, this ranks as a considerable disappointment"	NEG
United States	Roger Ebert rogerebert.com	"The Hangover, Part II" plays like a challenge to the audience's capacity for raunchiness (...) Alan (Zach Galifianakis), the character who stole much of the original 2009 film, walks off with a lot of this one, too (...) Rating: ★★ (out of 4)"	NEU
United States	Ann Hornaday The Washington Post	"The Hangover Part II offers absolutely nothing new to fans of the first film (...) Rating: ★ (out of 4)"	NEG
United States	Drew Taylor IndieWire	"A lazy, unpleasant & unfunny mess (...) Our guess is that moviegoers will feel just like the main characters: lost, confused, disappointed, and desperately trying to move on"	NEG
United States	Michael Rechtshaffen The Hollywood Reporter	"What happens in Bangkok isn’t as much fun as when it happened in Vegas, but it’s still worth the trip"	NEU
United States	Betsy Sharkey Los Angeles Times	"Oh, what a headache-inducing, unapologetic money grab we have in 'The Hangover Part II' (...) You’ll be more inclined to groan than giggle."	NEG
United Kingdom	Peter Bradshaw The Guardian	"[It] seeks only to repeat almost every element of the first movie. It's not a sequel, closer to a shot-for-shot remake (…) Rating: ★ (out of 5)"	NEG
