I just saw Hangover 2. I was a bit dismayed that it didn't win the Oscar for best movie ever, but I'm happy that it made over half a billion dollars. Critics complain that Hangover 2 was a repeat of Hangover 1. Well, Hangover 2 is in Bankok. That's not Vegas. How more different can you get? Plus extra points for not using roman numerals.
Hangover 2, or 1 for that matter, would have been pretty mediocre had it been located in LA or Toronto. Thailand is different. Somewhere many of us want to visit, but haven't been to yet.
I think my favourite scene in Hangover 2 is when Alan (Zach Galifianakis), the stay at home son, walks down a street in Bankok with a bag of soda. A bag of soda (aka pop or carbonated soft drink)!
Just discoverd Qingdao, China, has one better: beer in a bag!
