Review of Hot Tub Time Machine 2 (2015) by Ildefonso M — 10 Apr 2015

There's next to nothing enjoyable about this sequel to the amble buddy flick from 2010. I think I giggled at the Lisa Loeb reference, but when someone gets their junk blown off via shotgun, it's kinda hard to laugh.

The same can be said for psychedelic drug trips that start with "See ya later". The reason HTTM went so well was due to it relying on the trip to save their friendship, and fixing the things that may have made a moral difference in the present.

The sequel lowers the bar, on a Hangover II level, thinking the more offensive and grotesque the jokes, the more likely we'll be grateful. They've miscalculated.
