Overview

About the Film

The Hangover Part II is a 2011 American comedy film directed by Todd Phillips, the sequel to his 2009 blockbuster hit. The film reunites Phil, Stu, Alan, and Doug as they travel to Thailand for Stu's wedding to Lauren. Despite Stu's meticulous precautions to avoid repeating their Las Vegas disaster, the group wakes up in a seedy Bangkok hotel room with no memory of the previous night, a shaved head, a face tattoo, a severed finger, and a chain-smoking capuchin monkey — while Lauren's teenage brother Teddy is missing.

The Hangover Part II was one of the most financially successful comedy sequels ever made, earning $586 million worldwide on an $80 million budget. Critics and some audiences noted that the film essentially replicated the structure of the original beat for beat, transplanting the same amnesia mystery to a more exotic and dangerous location. Todd Phillips defended this approach as intentional, arguing that the comedy derived from watching the same characters fall into the same trap despite their best efforts to prevent it.

The Bangkok setting allowed for darker, edgier humor than the Las Vegas original, and Ed Helms's Stu — who discovered the full extent of his night's adventures through his new Tyson-inspired face tattoo — provided the sequel's emotional throughline. Zach Galifianakis's Alan remained the franchise's most reliably absurd comedic element.
