Movie Info
"The Hangover Part III" is the third and final film in director Todd Phillips' record-shattering comedy franchise. This time, there's no wedding. No bachelor party. What could go wrong, right? But when the Wolfpack hits the road, all bets are off. (c) WB

This final installment in the party-boy franchise... wisely drops the narrative gimmick of alcohol-induced amnesia that made the first movie so unusual and the second its pallid copy.
Top CriticAn excessively violent action comedy that handily manages the tough task of feeling at once tired and aggressively heartless.
If only what happened in Vegas had stayed in Vegas.
This third installment could easily be dismissed as too little, too late, if only it weren't in fact too much, too late.
This odious, mean-spirited movie appropriates the title and the characters from the previous pictures and sends them on a would-be adventure involving gangsters, gold bars and that pinnacle of hilarity, decapitated giraffes.
Not just bad, but weirdly, fascinatingly bad.
Where's Mike Tyson when you need him?
It's really apparent that outside of the originally established formula, Phillips and company really had no clue where to take the Wolfpack.
It is barely a comedy. Heck, it's barely a movie.
Whatever humour was left in the guys-gone-wild porn of the Hangover franchise dribbles and trickles and slips out, one quarter-chuckle every half-hour or so, in the third instalment.
This sequel is obnoxious, unfunny, and disgusting, a far cry from the humorous original.
The Hangover series comes to a merciful close with an installment that's at least a slight improvement over its immediate predecessor...
These movies are done. They are past done. Yes, The Hangover was a genuinely funny movie, but the warm feelings towards a well done piece of entertainment are not enough to make Part III anything more than rote.
What's strangest about The Hangover Part III is how, well, not funny it is. I don't mean that it makes a bunch of jokes that don't work; I mean that there are not a lot of jokes.
Among the movie's built-in problems are the fact that Galifianakis' character is more pathetic than amusing...
Many moviegoers might feel betrayed by a concept that isn't nearly as funny as its predecessors in part because it doesn't try to be as funny.
There was barely enough depth to these characters to pull us through the first 100 minutes, now five hours later they've become thoroughly boring.
A nutty kitchen sink comedy ending on a cliffhanger designed to keep diehard fans of the depraved franchise in suspense about whether yetta nudder sequel might be in the works.
The makers of the Hangover movies shouldn't see any glory in being responsible for the second-unfunniest [Scary Movie being the first] comedy franchise in town.
Human pain and humiliation may be the essence of comedy, but animal cruelty is hardly funny. The third Wolfpack film touts its giraffe decapitation in its trailer; it also includes the smothering of a chicken with a pillow and the poisoning of dogs.
Perhaps we were wrong to complain about the repetitive nature of 'The Hangover Part II.' At least there were funny moments. This is a slow action film, with only a few amusing parts.
Yeah...we totally didn't need this movie.
It doesn't offer as many surprises as its predecessors. But it ties things up neatly - just as it should. I can see the boxed set now with all three movies and a bottle of aspirin attached!
The Hangover Part III is where the series gets the dry heaves.
Well, the wolves have packed it in and anyone who coughed up 10 bucks for a ticket to this fecal threequel has my deepest condolences.
The Hangover III is all big, broad comedy, a movie that never met a hacky punchline that it didn't shriek in your face and then repeat two seconds later.
