Storyline

Stu is getting married. Along with Doug, Phil, and his soon-to-be brother-in-law Teddy, he regretfully invites Alan to Thailand for the wedding. After a quiet night on the beach with a beer and toasting marshmallows by the camp fire, Stu, Alan and Phil wake up in a seedy apartment in Bangkok. Doug is back at the resort, but Teddy is missing, there's a monkey with a severed finger, Alan's head is shaved, Stu has a tattoo on his face, and they can't remember any of it. The wolf-pack retrace their steps through strip clubs, tattoo parlors and cocaine-dealing monkeys on the streets of Bangkok as they try and find Teddy before the wedding.

Trivia

When filming the scene where Stu discovers the tattoo on his face, Bradley Cooper genuinely broke into laughter, and co-Writer and Director Todd Phillips decided to keep that take in the film.

Goofs

When Alan reveals how he inadvertently drugged his friends again, there is absolutely no way that a combination of muscle relaxers (most commonly Baclofen, Soma, & Flexeril) and ADHD medication (most commonly Adderall, Dexedrin, Ritalin, & Vyvanse) would have an amnesiac effect. The muscle relaxers alone by have made them loopy and pass out early, but not cause amnesia. And the amphetamine-based ADHD medication would not only have prevented any amnesiac effect, but they would've been so hyper-stimulated that they would've been in control of their faculties.

Quotes

Alan: [confused upon seeing a naked hermaphrodite] I don't get it. Is this a magic show?

---

Crazy Credits

One of the photos during the closing credits recreates the photo of General Nguyen Ngoc Loan executing Nguyen Van Lem.

---

Alternate Versions

As with the first part, the BBFC had issues with some photographs in the end credit sequence. To secure a "15" certificate, these photographs were cropped to hide the graphic nudity.

User Reviews

Very Funny!

**This contains Spoilers**

I'm not going to disagree with many negative-commentors-- it DID have the same style as the original Hangover. For example, it shows a scene close to the end from the beginning, there are VERY inappropriate pictures during the end credits, and, of course, the problem- what the **** happened that night.However, it definitely was not the same as the first. It was MUCH more inappropriate than the other one. There were many scenes with breasts, penises, and I can't remember if it showed a vagina. However, that sort of made it funnier. I did like the first one a bit better, but this was great too. It was a very guilty pleasure. I can't wait for the sequel! ( It never said what happened to Mr. Chow after his arrest, so I'm guessing he will come back.)
