HTTM is yet another example of a great idea that falters under subpar execution. Sometimes really funny, sometimes really poignant, it never quite reaches the heights it should because of a too-fast editing style and weird directorial flourishes. If it just slowed down and enjoyed the ride, it could be partying like it's 1986.

Likably tossed-off comedy that relies a bit too heavily on ironic kitsch for laughs before becoming, like so many other recent comedies, a delivery system of middle-aged male wish fulfillment. No longer will this once-virile, now-emasculated man have to compromise and take his wife's name: Take that, women!

Hob Tub Time Machine never feels really original. Mature gross out comedies are a dime a dozen nowadays and this is basically Back to the Future with a Hot Tub instead of a DeLorean. While some of the jokes are humourous the film is never truly memorable and I'm sure will simply be referred to as "that movie with the time traveling hot tub". Although I'm sure some people will refer to it as "that movie with the time traveling hot tub and Crispin Glover", and rightly so because he was superb.

Back to the Future is more or less my all-time favorite movie, and Hot Tub Time Machine is basically Back to the Future with the 50s, the DeLorean, and one protagonist swapped out for the 80s, a hot tub, and four protagonists (with a bonus sprinkling of tits and f-bombs), so it was pretty much inevitable I would like it.

A Back to the Future rehash with jokes where 'hey guys, remember the 80's??' is the main punchline. A few amusing moments, but a ton of wasted potential.

an extremely 2010 movie. jokes about Miley Cyrus and gay people existing, coupled with a reverent nostalgia for the mid-80s. it's hard to laugh at characters pointing out the premise of the movie they're in for the umpteenth time, and it's even harder to laugh at most of the jokes, which are bad. the Crispin Glover arm gag is pretty good, but the movie way oversells it. props for Bizarre Love Triangle on the soundtrack, at least.

More amusing than funny, this is like a modern mashup of half a dozen 80's movies that takes the opportunity to go to a few heavy places films couldn't back then. It's a lot more dramatic than I expected, with a few parts that are actually pretty moving. The tone is noticeably uneven at times, but they did a good job of depicting the time, and as a huge fan of that Crue song, the end credits filled me with love.

Since when did Time Travel comedies turn such ostensible farce. I would prefer counting the hair on the top of my head over counting its blatant references to Back To The Future, which truly is neither a parody, nor a slapdash fun.

It's been called Back to the Future meets The Hangover, and that's a pretty apt description. Four dudes (including a Daily Show alum) wake up buzzed with no idea how they got where they are: 1986. While The Hangover may have been funnier, HTTM is more intelligent. It's a smart movie, for a dumb comedy anyway, with some surprisingly effective dramatic turns here and there. An exceptionally well-cast film; every principal part is played perfectly. Corrdry, Robinson and Glover are hysterical.

The movie had a couple minor moments, but no one stole the show. Fans of the vulgar humor will enjoy it. If you don't like the first scene you might just want to turn it off because there's a lot more of that. I did enjoy some of the catchy tunes. Point of reference... Add an extra 5-15 pts if you watch this while on something (the amt of points varries depending on the caliber of drug you use. 5pts for alcohol and up to 15 points for LSD (which I don't normally promote)).

It's telling that the decade these boorish Maxim magazine "Types" ("characters" is a stretch) travel to is the 80's - Hollywood's go-to dead horse 2 beat 4 cheap laughs/fond nostalgia. This kind of laziness poisons the entire film which, amazingly, has most of the Types not overly bothered by the idea of throwing away the golden opportunity 2 redo their lives knowing what they already know now. Plots this sloppily sewn 2gether need some great jokes 2 work, but there's barely a handful here.

It has a few cute gimmicks, but mostly it's massive doses of gross/potty humor and tired old and embarrassing sit-comisms. And the rec-drug use covers the gamut from front to back, passing it off as normal. Nice touch.

4 dudes go back in time, have some laughs, and learn some lessons about life. For this kind of comedy you're better off seeing it in the cinema with a packed audience who have paid good money to laugh and are intent not to see it wasted. On TV I found it fun, with some genuinely funny bits, but I had no real interest in watching them learn about life and themselves, and have no reason to watch it again.

The idea is not bad, but firstly, it's one of the many time machine movies of late and the same theme is starting to get a bit overused, and secondly the movie is average in just about anything. It's a fun easy-to-watch & easy-to-forget movie, but not much more than that.

While a bit hit-and-miss, I had a good time with "Hot Tub Time Machine," that for my money has more consistent laughs than last year's 'Hangover.' Rob Corddry is probably the film's greatest asset, as his character dominates all of the most outrageous scenes that take place here. It may not be a perfect comedy, but it does work as a nostalgic experience and has much the same brand of humor as 'The Hangover' and other films like it.

Basically the inbred child of Back to the Future and The Hangover, without the quality of either movie. It's never particularly funny (I think I laughed out loud about once) but it is quite good fun and entertaining for the most part, until it loses steam about half way that is. The premise isn't used to its full potential, the soundtrack could have been better and it just lacked an overall charm that I was expecting from this. Crispin Glover was great. "Are you raping?!"

Funnier then I expected, everyone played off of one another really well and there was some great comedic timing. I think I did a good job of forcing myself to ignore all of the broken time traveling rules, because ultimately this movie did not intend to try and follow any. I like the little nods to 80's movies. It makes it fun to watch and try and guess how many they reference through phrases, and scenes.

Yet another movie that should have remained a trailer. The setup is made from the finest nectar, gently extracted from the most beautiful flower in camp heaven, but the writers seem adament never to go near the road less stupid, even when it would be obvious. As such it's another great idea wasted on a fart/fuck/feces fest that even magnificant breasts (looking at you(rs) Jessica Paré) cannot save.

Movie titles seem to be getting a lot less creative lately, but I'm completely okay with that if the movie transcends the title. Use the title to sell the concept and the film to build character. 'Hot Tub Time Machine' doesn't do much of either. Instead of going somewhere unexpected with the comedy, it's always the most obvious gag possible. Poo, barf and piss are supporting cast to the F-word. The characters take a backseat to hit and miss jokes. It just feels like it never really gets going.

Not as good as it could of been. It's absolutely hysterical in some parts, but it feel flat in others. It's use of raunchy humor was very hit and miss humor-wise and was completely overused. The best parts were the references to the 80's (film, clothes, television, music, actors) and if you have a healthy respect for that period of time you will probably enjoy this. It's none of these guys best roles, but it's a pretty fun movie.

Top badass moment? John Cusack briefly brandishing a Fishbone t-shirt. Unfortunately, the band doesn't manage to make it onto the soundtrack. However, by now taking this opportunity to reveal that I've seen Fishbone live, I have hugely increased my street cred on this site. I'm certainly down and hip with the kids today. (And I guess by saying the latter I've just lost it all again.) 2 cats, 1 chainsaw and no decapitations.

A cross between your teen comedy for guys and a more serious picture of mature men getting a second chance in life. It's okay, but nothing more than that.

Idiots yelling and arguing with each for 90 minutes is not amusing or entertaining. Contains all your typical gross-out joke cliches that stopped being funny years ago and are now just eye-rolling.

Despite a couple of slightly inspired touches (squirrel on the field, the bellhop gag) the movie was derivative, highly predictable, and just not as funny as it should have been. The 80s throwback jokes just felt trite (yes, we know old cell phones look silly - we've been making fun of them for 15 years). And I realize there were touches of homage here and there, but that didn't change my feeling of "been there, done that". But Crispin Glover alone almost makes me recommend this. Almost.

A time travel movie fueled by alcohol and illegal Russian energy drinks, Hot Tub Time Machine possesses an irreverent self awareness and dismissive attitude towards scifi paradoxes all while bathed in the neon glow of 1986. Each character has their own mission to safegaurd the timeline; be it John Cusack having to break up with his amazingly attractive girlfriend or Rob Corddry having to repeatedly get beaten up. This isn't Back to the Future, nor a nostalgic love letter to the 80s, thankfully.

In a few words: poorly executed. I mean, this could have been an ironic satire of the 80s, mixed with the wild concept of defying destiny and 'embracing the chaos.' It threatened to reach these heights, but it was soon dragged down by off-the-mark direction, needlessly placed gags that made it feel rushed and plenty of stereotypical third millenium AD 'humour.'

It's hard not to think that the screenwriters came up with the title for this film, and worked backwards from there. Yeah, it's not very good. In a movie like this, having likable characters is absolutely critical, and with the possible exception of Craig Robinson's character, it fails to achieve this. Overall, it's pretty boring and I didn't laugh once. It's not awful, but it is a waste of time. And time travel, for that matter.

Hot Tub Time Machine is one of the most surprising films I've watched. It had almost everything that I wanted from a very good comedy, and its problems--few as they are--can easily be ignored because of that. It's funny, its characters have depth and development, and the premise itself is interesting. I really enjoyed myself while watching it, and would definitely say to give it a look if you initially passed it over like I did.

This HANGOVER-lite gains strength and energy from its leading quintent - Cusack is a perfect sensible and sane anchor, Robinson's droll dead-pan is spot-on (with his breakdown on the phone a comedic masterstroke); film is stolen by Corddry's award calibre spin on the out of control loser, folding in some shade and even some depth and feeling into his stereotypical role. Stiff competition provided by Glover, figuring in the film's best running gag. A barrel of unexpectedly good natured fun.

Majorly flawed, but still somehow passable for very mild entertainment. The "time machine" aspect is used enough, but I could've done with some more of that "hot tub". The script feels very rushed, as the intricacies to these timelines are often covered very quickly/awkwardly.The jokes aren't funny enough to raise any more than a loud snort, but there's a sufficient amount of them. And the conclusion to this premise is amazingly depressing and more heavy-hearted than it lets on.

It is watchable and has its moments but it's bereft of big laughs and feels like a lot of its potential was wasted. It's also alarmingly worrying how you get crap, piss, farts and puke in, like, the first 20 minutes (sorry for the spoilers), and then all of a sudden you get lessons on life and friendship. What's even more alarmingly worrying is that half the time it actually works.
