Watch The Movie Hot Tub Time Machine

By Rose Good

You should always be pretty well aware of the major releases coming to DVD. Comedy movies are no exception, and it seems that, as of late, there have been several different comedy movies that have made an impact. One of these movies would most certainly be "Hot Tub Time Machine" for many different reasons.

You should look to this particular article to give you a good introduction to this particular film in a couple of different ways. One of these ways will be through giving you the names of some of the finest talent in the film. Another and more prominent way for the sake of this particular article will be the plot synopsis. This won't really contain any spoilers, so if you haven't seen the film, you can still get a more detailed look at what happens.

This film opens up on what life is like right now for a group of middle aged men. Life has passed them by for the most part, and what is left of it does not seem to be shaping up that well for them. It chronicles the failing relationships of three of what are the main characters of the film: Adam (John Cusack), Nick (Craig Robinson), and Lou (Rob Corddry).

Lou decides after a night of drinking to attempt to kill himself by leaving his car running with him inside while in the garage. Next thing you know, Adam and Nick find themselves at the hospital trying to figure out how so much space and time got between all of them. They commit that they are going to go on a trip to one of their childhood hot spots, the Kodiak Valley Ski Resort.

However, time has not been kind to the resort, and it is all but a dump right now. Without many options, they decide to all get into the hot tub out back and through a strange sequence of events manage to turn that same hot tub into a time machine. Next thing they know, they are living in the eighties once again. They even look as they did, when they experienced this same Winterfest '86 decades before.

Committed to not messing up the future by altering anything about the past, they determine that they have to make all of the same decisions that they made back then all over again. Adam is going to have to break up with the girl that he always considered to be the one, Nick is going to have to play a show and have sex with a groupie (much to his own dismay now being happily married), and Lou is going to have to find himself on the wrong end of a beat down.

Winterfest '86 takes its toll on the characters, though, and they decide that maybe they can change things this time around. Through a little bit of dumb luck and chance, the group finds out a lot more about their lives, what could have been, and what they didn't even realize.

If you were planning on checking out "Hot Tub Time Machine", you are making a very good call. If you loved the eighties, than this film is for you. If you love great jokes and outlandish humor, than this movie is for you. If you just like to laugh hard, this movie is one that you will watch a time or two. - 40730
