    Why go see it? After the second one, it's pretty obvious it will be a let down. Save your money and rent it.

    There is a hangover, about a minute into the credits. I hope everyone that watched it last night at least stayed to see the extra scene. It made the movie not seem like such a waste of $10.

    With how bad the second one was and how bad this probably is... might as well tell us and save your fellow CF brethren a few bucks.

    double spoiler, just in case.
    They wake up in a trashed Vegas room again. Everyone wakes up as Stu is walking out of the restroom. He got breast implants (walks out topless in some women's underwear or speedo or something), everyone laughs in disbelief and Stu does his typical freaking out thing. The t*** looked real, so it was very weird to see.

    Why not start the movie with this and have them figure out what happened the night before...? Just like in the first one. Weird that they chose to have the best scene at the end where most won't get to see it.

    I was in the middle about it, was going in with low expectations so it was better than I expected. The biggest problem with me is that Bradley Cooper/Ed Helms have become bigger stars since the first movie, yet its all about Zach Galifianakis and Ken Jeong in this one. It was more of a road trip/heist movie, and as mentioned the "Hangover" scene was in the end after the first set of credits

    Good to see baby Carlos, even read, they used the same baby from the first one..., he grew up and not bad of an actor for being his age

    wish there was more than 2 mins of Jamie Chung, but whatever

    Teddy would've been a nice cameo to see what the hell happened with his finger

    if I had to suggest this or Fast/Furious 6, I'd recommend FF6 and I haven't even seen it yet

    Gonna skip and watch FF6. At least that's been getting better reviews from here and abroad.

    Movie was funny but plot kinda sucked. Expected it to be an epic movie, but was still worth watching

    Yeah, I'm glad you enjoyed it/ restored my faith in the trilogy and I will be seeing it today.. The fans of the trilogy from what I heard said it was a lot darker but when the comedy hits it hits hard which is the whole point in going to a comedy.

    I guess what I hated about the second movie was that it was a mirror image of the first except in a different location. But this one is completely different which is good because I don't know if getting wasted and not remembered what you did would work as s plot for the third straight time.

    I was lucky enough to see it earlier this week at a sneak peek. I really enjoyed it for what it is- a Zach Galifianakis vehicle. The theatre was next to the ghetto ghost town Highland Mall. It was a free showing so of course you had certain demographics (POOR PEOPLE) talking to the movie and repeating every funny line. It was like yelling into a ghetto canyon. That was pretty annoying, but it didn't stop me from enjoying it.

    Summer blockbusters and especially sequels just have to give you more of what the previous ones did. They're not looking to revolutionize the raunchy buddy comedy. It makes you laugh- a lot. What else exactly are you guys expecting? Oscar worthy screen writing? It's written for the biggest audience possible.

    We almost didn't get in. One of the promoters offered us tickets to a FF6 showing down on Stassney instead. It was nice of him but that's not really my cup of tea. I get irrationally angry when I think of people who love that series. Instead of a cup of tea, I think of a bottle of Micky's and a Pit Bull album and people hanging out under freeways breakdancing and getting herpes. Maybe an unfair generalization but meh.

    I'm kind of surprised it's scored so low. It wasn't bad and Rottentomatoes is usually pretty in the ballpark. Maybe the people who have seen it fancy themselves discerning movie critics more so than mass release watchers? Probably not true the more I think about it.
