Actualization:

Kick Some Past:

Hot Tub Time Machine follows a group of best friends who’ve become bored with their adult lives: Adam (John Cusack) has been dumped by his girlfriend; Lou (Ron Corddry) is a party guy who can’t find the party; Nick’s (Craig Robinson) wife controls his every move; and a video game-obsessed Jacob (Clark Duke) won’t leave his basement.  After a crazy night of drinking in a ski resort hot tub, the men wake up, heads’ pounding, in the year 1986.  This is their chance to kick some past and change their futures- one will find a new love life, one will learn to stand up for himself with the ladies, one will find his mojo, and one will make sure he still exists!

If you had a Hot Tub Time Machine what year would you go back to revisit?  Would you change the course of your life or find something out?

I can think of a few hot tubs I might revisit….hmmm….I think I prefer to focus on the ones I’ll be stepping into in the future.

Watching John Cusak and friends go back to the 80s via hot tub was a trip.  Hot Tub Time Machine was hilarious and reminiscent with songs like Salt N Pepa’s Push It and Motley Crue’s Home Sweet Home.

Craig Robinson was my favorite hot tub-er, partially because of the red onesy he wore out of the tub AND partially because he plays Nick Weber, a name shared by my college crush.  Nick Weber goes back to play out his dream as a musician. Craig Robinson/Nick Weber can we please karaoke Jessie’s Girl together?

Clearly I don’t review movies. Do a shot, hold your breath and dive into Hot Tub Time Machine.

Realization: “Embrace the chaos.  Life just might astonish you.” – Hot Tub Time Machine
