Review of Hot Tub Time Machine 2 (2015) by Thefilmhead — 23 Feb 2015
I love being right, I really do, but when i'm wrong and I get a pleasant surprise it makes it that much sweeter. That was the case with Hot tub time machine 2. I never saw the first one, so maybe this made the experience a bit more surprising, but this movie was hilarious, I mean wicked funny. The chemistry between these three actors was special. The script was so funny, and it was so well written. I mean I think some of these one liners are going to go down in history. Essentially being a comedy film, there was a good mystery element going on at the same time. Which gave the raunchy comedy a plot with depth and substance. I was very impressed.
So this film starts off with rob cordrey's character getting shot in his manhood, and the team uses the hot tub to try and go back in time to save rob cordrey's character, but they end up ten years in the future. From there they encounter a legit smart car that gets pissed at robs character and tries to kill him, drug induced party's, and plenty of corky, raunchy humor and debauchery.
I think my favorite part of this film was the banter between the characters, they are all so different but, I cant say it enough, they play of each other so well. Another thing they did right was the films run time. I think It clocked out at an hour and a half. It didn't drag or feel slow at anytime. The films tone stayed consistent and the film was paced perfectly. I feel like as ridiculous this plot was it really worked well, they really did surprise me. Another thing they did well was not use all there material in the trailer. Now that I have seen the film, I think they maybe should have shown a little more, showing how funny this movie really is.
From the crazy drug trips to the little heartfelt moment between lou and jacob this film is so worth going to see if your looking for a good laugh. This is not a waste of money you will 100% get what you are looking for in this film. I can happily say I was totally wrong about this movie. I am going to give Hot tub time machine an 8.5 out of 10. Let me leave you this important life lesson, Don't ever **** in a playground sandbox, you'll get a record and a nickname. Thanks for reading.
