Hot Tub Time Machine
Let's face it: the best time-travel movie is still Back to the Future. No question. And this movie doesn't even come close. Even if they did have a small part for Mr. George McFly himself, Crispin Glover.
Anyway, they were supposed to go back in time to 1986. But the only way you will feel that they are in the eighties is when you hear the soundtrack. Costumes were not too eighties enough for me. So were the hairstyles. In fact, you might even think it's a nineties flick.
And a hot tub time machine? Lame-o.
John Cusack isn't really that versatile an actor as I hope he would be. But at least he tries. Rob Corddry, on the other hand, is always funny. Embarrassingly funny, most of the time. Craig Robinson isn't too loud, but he is still funny nonetheless. Clark Duke, one of the dorks from Kick-Ass, looked like a fat lesbian aunt. But Crispin Glover still takes the cake.
