To paraphrase Samuel L. Jackson’s bad M.F Jules Winfield, an alcoholic’s moment of clarity came to me while watching “The Hangover Part II.” I realized I have seen this movie before, when it was titled…“The Hangover.” As conventional wisdom suggests “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it”, the same seemingly applies when continuing a story that quite frankly was a one shot deal. In fairness, what else could they have done, especially after the first adventure of our trashed heroes was a brilliantly raunchy and crude comedy classic?

The major alterations this time around: the Wolfpack (Bradley Cooper as cocky cool guy Phil, Ed Helms as the milquetoast dentist with a wild side Stu, and Zack Galifianakis as man-child Alan) are now stuck in exotic city of Bangkok, Thailand, replacing the vibrant lights of Las Vegas. Instead of losing their friend Doug (Justin Bartha) who now helps the guys from a resort, the trice is in search of Stu’s finance’s kid brother after another insane night of drunken stupor.

Finally, there’s a movie that champions our society’s hunger for enhancement in “Limitless.” Flavor of the month Bradley Cooper plays Eddie Morra, an uninspired writer whose ambition has been quenched by daylight hangovers. When Eddie’s girlfriend Lindy (Abbie Cornish) dumps him, Eddie finds himself in a deep ditch. However, Eddie’s life is about to take a literary twist when his former brother in-law Vernon (Johnny Whitworth) offers him a pill that ends up showing Eddie the endless possibilities of his potential. Eddie, juiced up with a new found confidence, finds in this drug the key to his desires and aspirations.

Unfortunately for Eddie, his supplier Vernon ends up killed, leaving Eddie fearing for his life. But when he finds a huge stash of the pills, Eddie’s relentless rise to the top finds him partying with the wealthy, getting laid in the bathrooms of high end clubs with beautiful women, and even venturing into the stock market, where he partners up with the market’s top dog Carl Van Loon(Robert De Niro).
