New Release Preview - The Hangover Part 2



That's right people, the comedy sequel you have all been waiting for final arrives this week, the Wolfpack are back! 2009's massively successful original drew in the audiences and became one of the surprise hits of the year with what was at the time a relatively unknown cast. Now the stars have all made a name for themselves and expectations are very high for the second outing.


This time around we find Stu (Ed Helms) getting married to Lauren (Jamie Chung - Sucker Punch) and as tradition goes the guys decide that an early celebration is on hand, albeit low key this time around..... or so they think!


The morning after, and the guys Stu, Alan (Zack Galifinakis) and Phil (Bradley Cooper) wake up to find themselves in a dingy hotel in Bangkok with one person missing, Lauren' young brother Teddy. Once again the curse of the night before is upon them and the guy have to race to find Teddy and make the wedding before all is lost. 


As most of you will know, part of the success of the original was the mystery behind what happened the night before and once again there are elements which will have us wanting to know more and more as the film goes on. Stu finds a new tattoo on his face, a replicated version of Mike Tyson's, Alan has had his hair shaven off and there is a new member of the Wolfpack, a wild monkey!


No doubt this will be the cue for moments of madness and panic, with a re-appearance from Mr Chow thrown in and a cameo appearance from Paul Giamatti that sounds like it could be the highlight of the film. One thing is for sure, The Hangover Part 2 will draw in the crowds once again and Fanatical Film has a feeling that this could surpass the original classic. Here's hoping!


The Hangover Part 2 is out in the UK this Thursday
