It's no small feat to set a movie in the 80s Without drowning in nostalgia, making Too Many winking asides to decade's sillier aspects, and poke fun at The Time Traveler kind at the Same Time, Purpose Hot Tub Time Machine Manager to pull it off. The film IS at its best When It's Fearlessly silly and Allowances icts leads to Be're disgusting, confused, profane, and have over-the-top as The Scene Requires. The triple threat of comedic Actors Rob Corddry, Craig Robinson, and Clark Duke make the movie One That You'll Be steadily THROUGHOUT laughing and discussing your favorite jokes after you leave.

Adam and Nick hate Their Jobs and Their love-lives Adam's nephew Jacob Wastes His days doing jail time in Second Life, and Lou Is A Complete Mess-of-an-alocholic ass-hole Who Seems Destined to die bitter and alone. After Lou's Stupidity Makes it look like he Tried to commit suicide, Adam and Nick decided to go ITS TIME back to the winter resort where all Three Had the best time of Their young lives. Unfortunately by, The resort is current as Defeated Their lives have purpose With The Added Benefit of smelling like cat piss

All Seems Lost Until The guys discover a working hot tub Outside Their room. However, as science tells us, heavy drinking and drug use while in a hot tub Inevitably leads to time travel & the quartet find Themselves Transported back to 1986. Worried About the butterfly effect, Adam, Lou, and Nick (who look like Their Younger Selves to everyone in 1986) try to repeat Their actions From That weekend.

Meanwhile, Jacob IS Being one angry guy responsible did he wants get back to the present and to make sure he gets the privilege of Existing Before His fellow time-travelers' f * ck it up.

Hot Tub Time Machine is a tricky balancing act That marriages (for The Most Part) to walk the line and Succeed in being goddamn hilarious. Director Steve Pink Almost Always Pull the film back from falling too far in one direction. If it's embracing the 80s a little too tightly, you'll get one of the guys thats the 80s noting aussi Gave us Reagan and AIDS. If The Aesthetic starts Becoming a little too cheesy and Overdone, Pink Find the charm in Walkmans and cueing up one of The Many The great 80s tracks in movies. La même balance goes for The Time Traveler As The film has to gravement ESTABLISH The Rules, Does not shy from HAVING to The characters Reflect on time-travel KM gleamed from using time travel movies (bonus points for Timecop a mention).

hot_tub_time_machine_movie_image_rob_corddry_collette_wolfe_01.jpgBut More Than Anything, this film is subsequently assembled icts comic Actors and They Do not disappoint. Robinson, Who Is One Of The Best Actors deadpan comic out there, gets to HAVE MORE Variety in this role as he Makes Those quiet one-liners That absolutely kill, aim aussi gets up on stage and rock out to "Jesse's Girl" (although it's Followed by well-meaning tribute to the "Johnny B. Good" scene in Back to the Future, to making history band's still "Let's Get It Started "Was a weak song choice). Duke gets to Work As An audience surrogate, commenting On The Absurdity Of The situation and mocking The Behavior of His Fellow hot tub time-travelers. The weak link is Cusack Who feels like he's In The Film Because He Was an 80s icon But Then THEY HAD no idea What to do With historical character and just stuck in a mini-HIM Love Story With A random music journalist (Lizzy Caplan) With Whom he has no chemistry.

However, it's Corddry Who ends up ruling this movie. It's an overdue breakout performance That Will (Hopefully) land in HIM.
