Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms, Zach Galifianakis and Justin Bartha are back with another Hangover, but this time critics don't seem so thrilled.

The third movie, which was directed by Todd Phillips and premiered in theaters on May 20, brings the characters back to Las Vegas for the final part of the franchise.

In the film, Alan (Galifianakis) sees his life falling apart following the death of his father. The rest of the wolf pack attempts to help him out by taking him to a rehabilitation center in Arizona. On the way, Doug (Bartha) gets kidnapped, as he was in the first movie. The friends are threatened that they'll never see their dear friend again unless they find troublemaker Chow, played by Ken Jeong. 

It seems, however, critics aren't laughing.

"You chase Ken Jeong around and you crash into stuff with your cars and Zach Galifianakis falls off things," said Dave White for Movies.com. "All jokes recycled, lifelessly. Radicla."

The ruthlessness continues.

"At times it's debatable whether The Hangover Part III should even be considered a comedy at all, as it more often plays like a loopily plotted, exposition-heavy actioner," wrote Variety's Andrew Barker. 

"The Hangover franchise positions spoiled douchebags as admirable and cool, visually aggrandized with slow-motion hero walks like Gemini astronauts in The Right Stuff. Phillips is zero percent interested in exploring the narcissism of his characters, as long as they arrive back exactly at the point of departure," wrote Chris Packham for The Village Voice.

Luckily for these dissatisfied critics, they won't have to see anymore. 

"It is, in fact, over," Cooper told Newsday in an interview. "And I think it's kind of really wonderful to go out on a high note. But this is the end."

After six years, the wolf pack may have finally learned how to stay out of trouble.
