MJ5K's Review
Summary - Great 4.0 click to collapse contents
I’ve only seen 4 movies this year: Shutter Island, Alice in Wonderland, Clash of the Titans, and Hot Tub Time Machine. 2 of these proved to be dissapointing(Alice and Titans) and 2 exceeded my expectations(Shutter Island and HTTM). Of these 4 movies, Hot Tub Time Machine was the biggest surprise. When I saw the trailer and the mere title of the film, I wasn’t too excited and decided to pass. However, I caught a wiff of some good reviews and great buzz and decided to check it out. WOW! I’d say this surpasses last year’s The Hangover in terms of great laughs and gross out humor. This movie was side splittingly knee cap bustingly scrumdidilyumptiously hilarious!!
If you expect me to tell you the plot, forget about it! The title says it all! But here it is: Four guy friends, all of them bored with their adult lives, travel back to their respective 80s heydays thanks to a time-bending hot tub-Courtesy of IMDB.com
Hot Tub Time Machine is similar to Wild Hogs except for one major difference: Its actually funny! Providing a ton of great gags and a fine comedic cast to go along for the ride, Hot Tub Time Machine is the sleeper hit of the year that should likely get a cult following for years to come.
