That's right, Wolf Pack fans — "The Hangover" is back with the third and final installment in the comedy franchise, and boy, does it have a lot to live up to.
"The Hangover III" finds Alan (Zach Galifianakis) at a crossroads in his life: after the death of his father (Jeffrey Tambor), he stops taking his medication, and Phil (Bradley Cooper), Stu (Ed Helms) and Doug (Justin Bartha) agree to come together to help him get rehabilitation and treatment at a facility in Arizona. But en route to their destination, a ruthless gangster kidnaps Doug and threatens to kill him unless the other three produce Chow (Ken Jeong), who made off with $21 million in gold bars during the group's first round of misadventures in 2009.
The second installment made a boatload of money — one big enough to get the cast to Thailand and back — but it was critically derided, thanks in no small part to its similarities to the first film.
