    Storyline

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Craig Robinson came up with the Michael Jackson joke used in the trailer, as well as the "It must be some kind of hot tub time machine" line that he deadpans directly into the camera.
    • Goofs
      When Nick Weber is in the hot tub with the groupie (allegedly in 1986) They're listening "Push It" from Salt-n-Pepa but this song wasn't released until March 9, 1987 and advanced into the Top 40 the week of December 26, 1987.
    • Quotes

      Lou: Here's a question. Was it morally wrong for me to exploit my knowledge of the future for personal financial gain? Perhaps. Here's another question. Do I give a fuck?

    • Crazy credits
      The end credits start out as one of the main characters' alternative histories, showing real crew names over a flashy 1980s music video.
    • Alternate versions
      The unrated version is longer by 1 minute and 40 seconds.

    Hilarious With Some Surprising Heart,

    Hot Tub Time Machine is a great movie with a ridiculous but very funny storyline and a very comedic cast.I mostly enjoyed Craig Robinson in this movie,he isn't a very well known actor,but I really like him in everything i've seen him in,he's a good actor and also very funny,I also really enjoyed John Cusack,i've only seen him in serious roles in the past and I was surprised that he was so good at delivering a funny performance in this.Chevy Chase did a great job in this,but he needed to be in it a lot more,when you manage to get a comedy actor as big as this in your movie,you need to give them more screen time.I was also surprised with the heart in this movie,I thought it would be an American Pie type of comedy,but it was actually very heartwarming at times and I got really attached to these characters.Fans of very goofy comedies will definitely enjoy this movie and will be laughing out loud.

    Four discontented men are taken back to the 1980's by a hot tub in their hotel suite,and they must be careful not to change anything before the repairman (Chevy Chase) can get the hot tub working again.
