[Mr. Blue Sky]

Nice review, I might check this out when it comes out on DVD.
I agree about the Back to the Future comment, besides the third, I wasn't a big fan of the third, it wasn't bad, just not as good.

 

[Onyx Oblivion]

I might go see it, unless its a comedy in the style of stuff like Superbad, 40 year old Virgin, and Knocked Up.

I HATE THOSE MOVIES WITH A PASSION.

 

[VGFreak1225]

You know, I thought for sure this one was going to bomb, but so far, all the reviews seem pretty positive. I guess I gotta keep an open mind more often.

 

[ZZoMBiE13]

Shia LaBeof in a BttF film would... WOULD... rip apart the time-space continuum. Seriously.

 

[Distorted Stu]

I lol'd at the end, they really shouldnt make any more BTTF's.
Also, i now want to see Hot tub time machine & Chloe.

 

[GameGoddess101]

Good review. Personally, I have the same feelings about this move I had for the movie, The Hangover, which was hysterical... but movies like Knocked Up, Superbad, and Accepted (basically, the American Pie douches making the same damn movie with the same damn jokes) have colored my opinions of modern comedies a poor color... like... shitty brown. I might go see it, though.

 

[capacollo]

Good review. One of his funniest ones too in awhile.

 

[Omega Hunter 9]

Hooray, I was so hoping for this movie to be good. Also, completely agree on the BttF point. The remake would probably have way too much lens-glare or shaky camera anyway

 

[jpakaferrari]

Yeah I was poised for you to tear into this thing because the commercials don't make it look very good. Yet, you gave a really pretty much glowing review. I just might go see this movie based on this review, where as there was no chance in hell I would have seen it before.

 

[Pontus Hashis]

Good review...

 

[Ben Legend]

Hot... Tub... Time... Machine?
Who the heck thinks up these names?

 

[wooty]

Might go catch hot tub at some point, seems like a good unwinding flick.

Kudos for the stance on Back To The Future too, couldnt agree more on a 4th installment.

 

[SpaceSpork]

Look, we're not angry because Repo: The Genetic Opera was really good, we're angry because whoever the fuck came up with the title was blatantly stupid enough to add the word Repo to the title of a movie that's ripping off the same general premise as another movie with Repo in it. Quality isn't the problem: plagarism is.

 

[Falseprophet]

I kind of wanted to see this anyway, even though I rarely go out of my way to see comedies. But you haven't steered me wrong on movies yet Bob, so I'm going to try and check it out.

Shia...grr...

 

[sephiroth1991]

He's right about Back to the future.

So Hot Tub Time Machine is funny

 

[Skreeee]

Is it possible to lose the respect of a reviewer after one review? Yes, I must say that you have lost a fan Movie bob, you picked me up when you said you hated halo, you lost me when you recommended this movie. Also the problem with Repomen was that the fucking idea was stolen from Repo the genetic opera, it was THE SAME FUCKING CONCEPT WITH MORE EXPLOSIONS. *sigh* farewell movie bob, with this the escapist is one step closer to being dead to me.

Melodramatic much?

OT--I was on the fence about seeing this. On the one hand it had a decent cast. On the other, the premise was idiotic. Maybe I'll give it a go when it hits the local cheap seats.

 

[SoxFan96]

I was thoroughly prepared for Bob to rip this one apart. I completely thought that it would be a terrible comedy I mean really, how good could a movie be with the title "Hot Tub Time Machine" be. I guess I need to stop judging books by their cover.
