Comes out tonight. Anyone going to see it? I'm going to wait til the Sunday afternoon showing, so there isn't as many people.

This is such an obvious cash grab by the movie studios I'm not even sure I want to see it.

Cocktooth · 05-26-2011, 12:51 PM

The critics reviews are as such. Yahoo user reviews said it's still very funny, but no new storyline, which is obvious.

This.

To top it off, Bridesmaids seems to be cashing in on highly unrealistic (and by that I mean funny women [who actually aren't very funny]) female version of The Hangover.

But you will.

If I don't see it this weekend, I'll probably wait until the DVD.

You guys are absolutely ridiculous ...

YES ITS A CASHGRAB.

Highlight to find out why: ITS A FUCKING MOVIE

Comedies being highly unrealistic? When does that ever happen?

Actual review:

I just got back from Hangover II. Its a completely solid movie all. Is it as funny as the first one? No, it can't be with the fact that the premise is no longer "new". The rehashing of the same gimmick is less bothersome than you would think; the only noticeably negative aspect of the entire movie is some poor pacing, which every modern movie seems to be guilty of. If I were to give this a 1 vs 1 comparison against the original, I would say its 85% as funny as the first one, which still puts it pretty up there in the all time comedy standings.

That's pretty much what I have been reading. I was debating going to see it tonight here in Valpo, but will probably go on Sunday. I think it will be worth the 8.50 that I pay now to see a movie. I've only seen 3 movies worth that money since I started paying it. ( Hangover, World Trade Center) I feel comfortable I won't get robbed on this one. I prefer the drive in 2 for movies now and days

Zach Galifianakis of 'Hangover Part II' Hates to Be Loved - TIME

Quote:

It's also that Galifianakis actually dislikes his audience — both the frat-boy fans who dot Vegas casinos in T-shirts bearing his face and his socially awkward Hangover character's self-description, "One Man Wolfpack," and the fellow hipsters who go to see him at alternative-comedy clubs. In one recurring bit, he plays the piano until he hears people talk, at which point he walks over to them and screams at them to shut up. "My whole attitude is, You can't think of funny s--- yourself? You have to come watch me?" he says.

lol.

I saw this movie tonight. I was very impressed with it. It was a great movie-very glad I went to see it.

Danzig's song near the beginning was an added bonus to its awesomeness.

SittinOnDubsWGW · 05-30-2011, 05:38 PM

I saw it last night as well. Although it's very formulaic to the first one and had some pacing issues, it was still enjoyable.

I wanted to know who did that song, thanks for pointing out that it was Danzig.

DDTempest · 05-30-2011, 08:51 PM

I heard it and said "this sounds like it could be Danzig ... but its probably some new hippy shit" ... glad to know it actually was.

Same as first, except lines were more forced for Galafuckis and included more shock-value jokes.
