One of those comedies is Hot Tub Time Machine. This movie is generally not worth spending ten dollars on, but it may be worth it to a few of you. The one good thing about this movie was the director did not try and hide the fact that the plot was awful. The times where the characters looked directly at the screen made for some funny comic relief that may have made the movie a little funny. Hot Tub Time Machine had some pretty funny parts, granted they may have been funny because of the actors themselves (not necessarily what they were saying). For example, Rob Corddry is one of the main characters and if you have ever seen any other movies that he is in (What Happens in Vegas, Blades of Glory, or Failure to Launch) then you already have a pre-existing thought that he is shameless and will do anything to get a laugh. In my opinion, the majority of scenes that were funny had him and Craig Robinson scarce; unless you are someone who enjoys a stupid movie with a few funny parts. I consider myself to be the target audience mainly because I love everything and it is rare that I see a movie and do not carry out the appropriate emotion; however, Hot Tub Time Machine is not a movie that I would ever waste my time with again. There were parts | found to be hilarious but I can literally count them on my one hand (and they probably won’t take up all five fingers). My boyfriend is more of a tough audience, and usually we disagree about the movies we see together. This was the first movie that we have seen in a while that we both agreed was not really worth the trip to the movie theater. Like I said before, this movie may be some people’s cup of tea, but in my opinion I did not enjoy it. If you are looking for a mindless movie to bid some time, this is just the movie to see—there is literally no thought needed. The plot (or lack there of) is simple, the characters are typical to this genre, and the time span is relatively short.
