Hot
Tub Time Machine 2
It’s
worse than Fifty Shades Of Grey!!!!!
In the years occurring after the first movie, the gentlemen who
traveled through time using this magical hot tub have decided they
should profit from the knowledge they possess.
Lou (Rob Corddry) has invented an internet search engine (Lougle),
which has led to immense riches.
Nick (Craig Robinson) has become a massive music star by writing every
big hit song from the future before the people who actually did write
them (and he might not remember the lyrics all that well).
Meanwhile, Jacob (Clark Duke), is serving as Lou’s butler, and
John Cusack’s character has disappeared (he’s the lucky
one).
After an attempt on Lou’s life (which results in him being
graphically shot in the penis, and that’s where many of you will
want to give up on Hot Tub Time Machine 2), the three attempt to head
into the past to stop the killer, but the Hot Tub Time Machine has sent
them into the future.
Why have they been sent into the future?
Can they find and stop the assassin?
Do you have the strength to make it all the way through Hot Tub
Time Machine 2?
Are you allowed to get a refund on your ticket if we are only 10
minutes into the movie?
Hot Tub Time Machine 2 is one of the most
aggressively, grotesquely off-putting movies I have ever seen
(it’s still better than Freddie Got Fingered, but
that’s not a massive accomplishment nor compliment).
It’s as if the entire film is a challenge to your soul and sense
of humor.
Director Steve Pink and writer Josh Heald aren’t putting together
a movie. They are attempting to insert every horrendous reference to a
penis any human being can utter in the span of 90 minutes. The two go
out of their way to insert penis jokes to the point where it
doesn’t have any impact, especially since it so rarely fits with
the line of dialogue or attempted joke being presented.
In their overly ambitious attempt to score that rated R designation by
being as raucous and lewd as possible, Pink and Heald destroy any
chance Hot Tub Time Machine 2 could have at being entertaining.
It’s overkill.
Forget about story.
Forget about good taste.
Forget about laughing (even the two stoned dudes in the back of the
theater are not laughing at this one).
Pray for humanity, because Hot Tub Time Machine 2 sets us up
for a possible Hot Tub Time Machine 3.
Hot
Tub Time Machine 2 is rated R for crude
sexual content and language throughout, graphic nudity, drug use and
some violence.
