HOT TUB TIME MACHINE (15): On General Release From Friday 7th May

If you’re expecting clever science and intriguing plot twists from Hot Tub Time Machine then you should do two things: first, re-read the title of this movie, and second, watch the trailer. You’ll soon see that this is a big, dumb comedy with nothing to say about the space-time continuum that you couldn’t pick up from an episode of Doctor Who.

80s teen idol John Cusack plays Adam, a grumpy insurance agent who, along with family man Nick (Craig Robinson), must come to his childhood friend Lou’s rescue after a failed suicide attempt. They rope Jacob (Clark Duke), Adam’s socially awkward nephew, into coming on a trip to the ski-resort they spent their youth in, hoping to cheer Lou up. Do It!
