The result is the kind of lazy comedy that demands a lazy audience. If you’re feeling lazy, you could do worse.

This farce is not as dumb as it seems. [Full review in Spanish]

| Aug 8, 2022

Those of a certain age will find this an enjoyable blast back to the past.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Oct 25, 2021

I'll go, it's a comedy, it'll be dumb and funny. And it was dumb. But it wasn't that funny yet.

| Aug 31, 2021

Gross, silly, stupid - yet this 80s time-travel comedy is surprisingly funny...

| Original Score: 3/5 | May 19, 2021

It should be difficult to make a 90-minute movie completely devoid of any redeemable qualities, but the filmmakers here might have succeeded.

| Original Score: 3/10 | Nov 29, 2020

Hot Tub Time Machine is a joyously R-rated, surprisingly insightful yet uncontrollably outrageous film.

| Original Score: 3.0/4.0 | Sep 11, 2020

This base and brawny raunch-fest blatantly pitches itself as The-Hangover-goes-Back-To-The-Future, and does not budge from this position until its half-cocked mission is fully completed.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 6, 2020

Even though all it is meant to be is a loving send up of '80s comedy, all it really does is make one long for the real thing.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jun 7, 2019

Hot Tub Time Machine is more than just a chance to poke fun at the decade of excess. There is actually a sweet-natured message about friendship buried deep within a film that isn't afraid to push its R-rating as far as possible.

| Original Score: B+ | May 10, 2019

There are genuine moments of raucous hilarity to be found in this film, mainly from the outrageous performance of Rob Corrdry.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Nov 5, 2018

Pink doesn't care much for character development, which would just about be forgivable if he made a decent fist out of capturing and poking fun at 80s fashion, music and culture.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Nov 5, 2018

An irreverent, guilty pleasure, frat boy comedy, it blows a big fat raspberry at sci-fi fans and tells them to stick their Flux Capacitors where the sun don't shine.

| Aug 23, 2018

It may be a generational gap that turned me off, but I thought it was all quite ridiculous and the dialogue worse than coarse. Trust me and not those in their 30s. It is not worth your time.

| Jan 13, 2018

You might not fall out of your seat laughing, but the film is consistently enjoyable from start to the very clever and amusing finish and with its brisk 93 minutes, it's worth taking a dip in this tub.

| Original Score: 7/10 | Dec 3, 2013

What Hot Tub Time Machine critically lacks is any sense of wit in its humour. Vomit, urination, male nudity and gay panic jokes take up a large amount of the film's time.

| Sep 15, 2013

Here's the biggest question in a movie built around them: Why isn't Hot Tub Time Machine a full-on parody of the culture (or at least the movies) that the characters revisit?

| Original Score: 3/5 | Oct 26, 2012

Like most guy-centric films these days, this film is ragingly homophobic and misogynistic, and you know what? These are some of the best parts. It is a testament to the wit of the writers and the charisma of the cast that we are never turned off.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Oct 5, 2012

If the filmmakers had thrown in some variety, it might have worked, because I'm sure they were going for more than just a feeling of indifference.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Oct 1, 2012

Those drawn in by the name will surely get exactly what they expected and then some.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Apr 8, 2012
