There are at least 100 rated-r comedies per year. Of course, a good 70 percent of them are dismissed for a complete lack of cast and that leaves about 30 movies that you've actually heard. Out of those 30 movies, I'd watch about 8-10 of them. Of those 8-10 movies, I end up liking only 3-4 of them. Hot Tub Time Machine is one the few R-comedies that works. While it's certainly not intelligent, it's not a comedy, it successfully bring sci-fi into he movie, and that bring the unique premise into the movie, making it original and distinguishes itself from extremely stupid comedies with no point to them. With all good comedies, you need good, unique, funny characters. While I liked John Cusack's and Craig Robinson's characters, they seemed like just another comedy character. It's Rob Corrdy's character to the strange funny wacko who drives this comedy. He spits out outrageous lines, and he certainly made us all laugh. The story is extremely interesting, and we're sad to see it all end. And for once, the ending was absolutely perfect. It even sets up a spin-off just for Lou's adventure between the 80's and modern day. I'm hyped for the sequel.
Movie Rating: A-
