Review of Hot Rod (1950) by Jamie I — 26 Jun 2016
Lets get one thing very clear here; Andy Samberg is really funny. If you've ever seen "SNL" I'm sure you know this. "Dick in a Box" ring a bell? Hot Rod is good for laughs.
If you've seen Footloose you have to see Hot Rod. Some "SNL" folks pop up here as well as Will Arnett (can't pass him up). Arnett plays the huge asshole boyfriend to Rod's love interest.
You love to hate him. My favorite part was without a second thought the whiskey scene (just watch the first bit before he rolls down the hill). I totally laughed watching it again! It was made into a rap song for the soundtrack.
I listened to it, quite nice. Speaking of the soundtrack I'm putting it down as a must have. In addition to 80s favorites by Moving Pictures, Cutting Crew, Stacey Q and Europe there's also a bit o' dialogue.
I totally recommend both the flick and the soundtrack.
