Two tricksters decided the direction of the series!
The aforementioned characterization of ``mean to kind people and kind to mean people'' succeeded in making Allen's words and actions unpredictable. Common sense doesn't apply to Allen's reactions, and you never know when he's going to be grumpy or cheerful. At the same time, Alan also plays the role of a catalyst that connects unexpected people throughout the series due to his attribute of being ``kind to people who are mean to others.'' The best example of this is Chau, a crazy Asian gangster played by Ken Jeong.
Chau is a supervillain with a strangely high tension, schizophrenic behavior, and no sense of ethics. ” is the greatest trickster born. A small Asian man rampages around naked in broad daylight, running away as fast as he can, then reappearing in a suit and provoking others with endless dirty jokes. The character of Chau, who doesn't follow any rules, became even more prominent through Ken Jeong's unconventional ad-libs. Of course, Director Philips must have encouraged Ken Jeong's reckless behavior, and Ken Jeong's doing whatever he wanted is included as a corner of the software's bonus footage.
However, the first film “The Hangover! ”, Chow was merely a villain. However, when Alan becomes an insane demon, they form an unexpected bond. Alan has become e-mail friends with Chow, an evil creature that no one wants to have anything to do with!
The fact that Alan and Chow had become friends before they knew it was an afterthought that was revealed in the sequel, ``The Hangover!! Wasn't it an unexpected friendship that was formed because they were together? It can be said that this is the result of the actors Galifianakis and Ken Jeong pouring in things that were not in the script.
Chow becomes an indispensable character in the second and third films, and the third film depicts Alan's growth and separation from Chow, a moving story that probably no one involved in the first film could have imagined. A climax was born. Before I knew it, I was watching “The Hangover! ' series is the story of Alan and Chow, and its beginnings are filled with the amazing performances of Galifianakis and Ken Jeong, who explored the eccentric characters in the first film.
