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.

Crazy Credits

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.)
