Hot Tub Time Machine is a 2010 comedy film about three middle-aged friends who are transported back to 1986 through a magical hot tub. The movie stars John Cusack, Rob Corddry, and Craig Robinson and is directed by Steve Pink. The movie follows the lives of four friends- Adam (John Cusak), Lou (Rob Corddry), Nick (Craig Robinson) and Adam's nephew, Jacob (Clark Duke). The story starts with Adam's divorce and Lou's attempted suicide, leaving their friendships strained. In an attempt to forget their problems and relive their youth, they decide to take a trip to the ski resort where they spent their wild party days. Upon arrival, they find their once-beloved ski lodge in a state of decay and a malfunctioning hot tub.

After a drunken night, they wake up the next morning in 1986 and discover that they have been sent back in time. Confused and disorientated, they suddenly realize that they have been transformed back into their younger bodies. They soon realize that the only way to return to the present time is to relive the past and correct their mistakes.

The group is ecstatic to find themselves back in the '80s, but things are not as they seem. The country club staff is hostile, and the hotel bar is filled with people in identical ski suits. They soon discover that their actions in the past have consequences in the present, and they must be careful not to change the course of time.

The group of friends embark on a wild adventure navigating the 1980s culture with their modern knowledge. They try to prevent Lou from losing his arm, help Nick get over his ex-girlfriend, and discover what happened between Adam and his ex-girlfriend. Along the way, things go wrong, and they begin to question if they made the right choices.

The film is a hilarious and entertaining comedy that plays with the '80s nostalgia. The characters are well-developed, and the chemistry between the actors is fantastic. The comedy is not only based on the nostalgia factor of the '80s but also on the absurdity of time-travel and the consequences of reliving the past.

John Cusack's character is the most serious of the group, and he wrestles with the morality of changing the past. Rob Corddry's character is the most outrageous, and he thrives in the '80s party scene. Craig Robinson's character is a sentimental guy who struggles with his ex-girlfriend's betrayal. Clark Duke's character is hilarious, as he is the young one in the group and is in awe of everything that is happening.

Overall, Hot Tub Time Machine is a delightful movie that will make you laugh out loud. The film does not take itself seriously and is an excellent film to watch with a group of friends. It is a perfect combination of '80s nostalgia, time-travel comedy, and character-driven plotline.

Hot Tub Time Machine is a 2010 science fiction movie with a runtime of 1 hour and 40 minutes. It has received moderate reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 6.4 and a MetaScore of 63.
