So
being the loving boyfriend that I am, I decided to take my girlfriend out on a
movie and lunch date. We both have a great sense of humour, so choosing a movie
was a mutual thing. So we chose to watch the much anticipated Hangover 3.
This
movie ditches the formula setup of the first two installments, in favor of a
more boring story revolving around Alan (Zach Galifianakis) who has been in a
downward spiral since the sudden death of his father, Sid (Jeffrey Tambor).
Alan’s dutiful brother-in-law Doug (Justin Bartha) recruits fellow “Wolfpack”
members Stu (Ed Helms) and Phil (Bradley Cooper) to stage an intervention and
convince Alan to seek treatment so that he can better himself, and his life.
Of
course, what should be a simple road trip and drop-off is sidelined by the
sudden appearance of a gangster named Marshall (John Goodman), who reveals to
the Wolfpack that they have a mutual friend in one Leslie Chow (Ken Jeong), who
recently escaped from a Thai prison and is on the lamb. Marshall kidnaps Doug
as ransom for the Wolfpack’s service in luring Chow out of hiding; however, the
wily Chow is not so easily caged, as the Wolfpack quickly (and painfully)
discovers that they have been scammed by Chow.
In
all honesty I think it’s redundant, the jokes are over rated and also very
cliché. They should have just left the legendary Hangover 1.Sequels are a hard
act to follow, and this one was an epic fail. But Alan is a legend
(haahahahahah) his just special.
Out
of 10 well, because Alan and Chow are legends, I’ll give it a 5. But that’s
just my thoughts, which are of paramount importance.
What ya say?
Yours
Sincerely
Mr
Ndlazi
