Based on how much I dug “The Hangover,” there is no way to describe “The Hangover 2” without using the words “terribly disappointing.” Zach Galifianakis brought the only funny in the whole flick, and he and Paul Giamatti—albeit in a bit part—were the only redeeming qualities in the entire film.
I mean, I think most viewers would have predicted that it would difficult to re-create the series of mishaps that made “The Hangover” so hysterical, so it’s not like my expectations were through the roof or anything. But it sure feels like director/producer Todd Phillips ran out of amusing plotlines and went straight to outright crude. As a result, I found “The Hangover 2” to be mostly weak and unfunny.
So in the interest of keep this review comparatively quick, I loved “The Hangover.” Yet “The Hangover 2” sucked mightily.
