The Wolf Pack is taking a bite out of the home entertainment market. LA Times The Hangover Part III, the final installment of the trilogy starring Bradley Cooper, Zach Galifianakis and Ed Helms, was the top-selling DVD and Blu-ray title in its first week in release, according to Rentrak. The film grossed more than $112 million domestically at the box office and $351 million worldwide, which is less than each of the first two Hangover movies made. Part III was a departure from its predecessors because it emphasized its action-thriller elements. It didnt fare well with critics. The movie generated a 19% fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
