Hot Tub Time Machine (2010)

[5]

John Cusack, Craig Robinson, Rob Corddry, and Clark Duke star in this Back to the Future parody of sorts, about three men and a nephew who take a nostalgic vacation at an old ski lodge from the men’s youth, where a mystical hot tub transports them back to 1986. Once taken back in time, they struggle to ensure events occur according to history, lest the nephew never be born. I’m hard on comedies, but this one didn’t suck too bad. The cast is moderately interesting, although Corddry can be annoying at times. Crispin Glover pops up in probably the film’s funniest recurring joke, while Chevy Chase’s cameo lands with a thud.
