Independent Cinema writes: After The Hangover Part II‘s rehash of the first film’s plot elements, there was nowhere to go but up. Unfortunately for The Hangover Part III (or Hangover 3 as I’ll refer to it), “up” doesn’t necessarily mean to the heights of the first entry in the (unnecessary) series. Playing around with the formula a bit while still managing to go back to elements of the first two films so as to tie everything together, the film gives up on being about hangovers and decides to work in some drama and action to its comedic roots. These attempts to be more than just a comedy work to middling degrees, making the movie show how devoid of humor Todd Phillips is, and how Zach Galifianakis can deliver a joke masterfully, when it is not funny on its own.

"If you are already a fan of this franchise, this is a very good option this weekend at the cinema. It's well made, the actors are great and the story/world setting is very interesting." - Bryan (Resident Entertainment)
