It's been two years since the gang known as the Wolfpack narrowly escaped disaster in Bangkok. Now, Phil (Bradley Cooper), Stu (Ed Helms) and Doug (Justin Bartha) have happy lives at home -- but Alan (Zach Galifianakis) doesn't. Still lacking contentment and a sense of purpose, Alan has gone off his meds and surrendered to his natural impulses. It's up to the other members of the Wolfpack to get him through his personal crisis by embarking on a road trip to the place it all began: Las Vegas.

Critics Consensus

Less a comedy than an angrily dark action thriller, The Hangover Part III diverges from the series' rote formula but offers nothing compelling in its place.

... if director and co-writer Todd Phillips didn't run this once clever idea into the ground the first two times, he definitely did it the third time with THE HANGOVER PART III.

If you loved The Hangover but loathed its nastier, cruder, non-hilarious sequel - apart from that quite amusing monkey - you'd be right to approach this threequel with caution.

Rated: 2/5

Flavorwire

It's such tired schtick, such a nakedly calculated play to be "controversial," for an increasingly irrelevant filmmaker to get attention. He used to do so by making funny movies.

Every Movie Has a Lesson

By ditching the flashback structure from the first two films and bringing in elements and hues of road movies, parenting dramas, and even violent crime thrillers, the result is certainly different than repeating the first movie again like a cookie-cutter.

Rated: 3/5

Deep Focus Review

With the final chapter, the gang’s all back for a movie whose superficial alterations in structure fail to distract us from the derivative plotting and the tired, by-the-numbers feel of everything onscreen.

Rated: 1.5/4

I wrote this at the time. Hangover 3. 7/10 Good movie, fun but no hangovers. Strange plot but still fun I was too nice to the film. It was very disappointing and a very unnecessary film, no hangovers and just a pointless entry and a nothing film.

Rated 1 out of 5 stars

I don't understand such hate. My personal opinion is that it clearly deviates from the concept of the other movies, but I personally found it entertaining, more than the sequel. I had fun with it.

The movie tries to have an internally consistent finale to the trilogy though it abandons its premise and becomes largely unfunny in the process. You're left to wonder why they made this.
