    Hot Tub Time Machine.


    So am i the only one that has seen this yet? I just got back from watching it and i really liked it. Loved the part about Stargate.


    Loved the music and some of the nudity and story was pretty nice.
    Course i love time travel movies and loved the 80's, love Cusack so had to see it

    I also liked this film. I read a review in the Washington Post that said it was better than Hangover. I don't think it was, but it was still entertaining. Could it perhaps be one of the greatest time travel movies ever?

    Composer Christophe Beck's website has launched and he has a few cues from his score on there. I personally could not make it passed one -- not my cup-of-tea scoring wise.

    I gotta go see this movie. Cusak was great in the 80's, and I was 17 in 1986.

    Damn....I *HATE* nostalgia.

    Haven't seen it but when I was at the gym the other day I saw a guy with an old Walkman and the first thing that popped into my head was "Dude's rocking a cassette player!".

    I'm looking forward to seeing this, but I won't see it probably for a few weeks.

    It was EXCELLENT. It was kind of a lighter, cruder Back To The Future. Highly recommended, especially if you were a kid in the 80s and remember the decade well.

    I just saw it today. It was a good funny movie which is a surprise to me who was expecting something stupid. But I have to warn anyone who's set on watching it that the movie does have some gross moments which may cause a number of you to cringe and cover your eyes.

    A review says this is 'The Funniest Comedy since The Hangover.' Huh? That movie is like 7 months old. It shows that either he couldn't compare it to anything, or is not a very good writer. You know it'll be on the dvd cover, though. Such a stupid review for a movie if you ask me. It's like saying 'The Wolfman is the scariest movie since Daybreakers!' Those were about a month a part.

    Saw it tonight - laughed my ass off. John Cusack has been one of my favorite all-time actors since "Gross Point Blank"

    And they got the time travel right, too - you CAN change things....

    I think the back of the Zombieland DVD says the same thing...and I thought the same thing you did..."The Hangover just came out!"

    I love how everyone was predicting this movie was going to suck, and how there's no way in Hell it's anything like even remotely like Back to the Future. XD Yet some of those same people are in here singing it's praises.

    Just love that.

    Took my son (age 15) to see it as we both laughed at the TV previews.

    Effing hysterical! :guffaw: I loved it, and having just watched The Hangover about a week ago, I will say that I thought it was much funnier.

    I can't see anything being funnier than The Hangover.

    Who said that? Ben Lyons?

    I saw it. Its garbage!

    You are all far too forgiving. Zombieland and The Hangover are much better.

    Its an insult to Back to the Future to even compare it to this.
