I am from India and I do not know much about 80s in my own country because I was born in 90s and without nostalgia I felt a little lost at times but I still enjoyed this movie. So the movie does not require extensive knowledge of 80s to be enjoyable but it will increase your enjoyment certainly if you are familiar with 80s. I may not know much about 80s but I did played Vice City. The story does not take itself too seriously and that just adds to the enjoyment and the twist at the end is just amazing. You will be predicting something else and the moment it hits it just works and its very funny!

If I could leave a one-word review - that would be it. HTTM has many laugh-out-loud moments.4 friends go back to a ski resort to re-live teens, but actually end up doing-it, literally.Before we talk more about this - pass on the sequel. It gets too ridiculous and too crass, and misses Cusak for sure.HTTM accomplishes a lot more than say,"Take Me Home Tonight(4/10)" in terms of paying homage to the 80's. TMHT missed the mark completely. Here, the dress, the music, and many other ideas are perfect.The film is paced perfectly, and as ridiculous as it all seems, it still works. Lots of connect-the-dots sub-plots involving and connecting both timelines, and good there's solid character development and chemistry as well.Rob Corddry and Craig Robinson steal the comedic moments, while Cusak holds everything together as the best actor and the leader of the group. Overall, this film isn't going to win any awards, and there have been much better films on the subject(Back to the Future), but HTTM gets props for sheer fun without going too far over the top, or crass in the process.Mild thumbs up. 63/100
Before I will be hit by the sequel which I hear is much worse than the original, here are my short impressions about this comedy with promising premises but quite a flat and dull execution. Since 'Back in the Future' was made in the mid-80s script writers have found little need to invent credible premises for time-travel films, be they thrillers or comedies. So when in 2010 director Steve Pink looked for one more opportunity to cast his preferred actor John Cusack (or maybe the other way, Cusack looked for a pretext to work again with Pink) there was no need to find much smarter excuses than a broken hot tub with golden water in an otherwise out of fashion ski resort in order to put things in motion. Three mid-aged friends from the 2010 universe find themselves plunged back into the times when there was no Internet, and smart phones got no signal, but they were young and thin and all girls had no other dream then bedding them, and yes, incidentally, smarter movies like 'Back in the future' were made.Besides holding one of the worst film names ever, Hot Tub Time Machine fell short of my expectations because it could not replace the lack of imagination in playing with the time paradoxes, or the platitudes and so expected jokes about 21st century adults meeting the habits of their youth and living again the experiences of their college years with enough craziness, sex appeal or just comic dumbness to keep me laughing and away from watching my watch despite the fact that the film is not long at all.Lacking fun and anarchy makes this retro film easy to forget. Even John Cusack cannot look much better than 'nice'. Easy entertaining for an evening when you really have nothing else to do. Watch it only if you really have seen 'Back to the Future' or 'Austin Powers' too many times. Or if your screen can be seen from the hot tub.
