Reviews

gazvine I don't ever pass comment on film but what an absolute waste of time, full of over the top over the top acting. Yeah you read that right. It takes the meaning of slap stick and melodrama to a whole new level of crap!

Prismark10 Hot Rod is a daft but enjoyable film. Keep your expectations low, have a good time with the stupid stunts and the middle of the road soft rock soundtrack.Rod Kimble (Andy Samberg) wants to be like his late father a stuntman who worked with Evel Knievel. However his stepfather Frank (Ian McShane) thinks he is a loser and not really a man. They usually spar where Rod gets the hell beaten out of him, but it is all in good fun. Rod just wants his stepfather's approval.When Frank needs life saving heart surgery, Rod and his friends decide to raise the money by performing a dangerous stunt.Hot Rod is a goofy movie, not too funny but its heart is in the right place.

brunkenator As a child I grew up watching 90's movies constantly because honestly the movies of the current decade are a pure joke. In an age when American Sniper is considered for movie of the year and Lego movie isn't people need movies like Hot Rod to fall back on.Upon viewing for the first time I was hesitant knowing that this was a SNL movie (i.e. Coneheads, you get the point:). The combination of pure comedy and an actual plot, this movie breaks ground as possibly the BEST comedy movie ever. Andy Samberg plays the role of his life, not only saving Frank but proving his Stunt Devil excellence. This movie produced some of the best impromptu dance seems and tear jerking dialogue. 10/10!!

SnoopyStyle Rod Kimble (Andy Samberg) is a man-child trying imitate his dead stuntman father who supposedly worked for Evel Knievel. He's in love with his neighbor Denise (Isla Fisher) and struggles for his stepfather Frank (Ian McShane)'s approval. To raise money for Frank's surgery, he intends to jump 15 school buses with the help of his friends Rico (Danny McBride), Dave (Bill Hader) and his half-brother Kevin (Jorma Taccone). Denise joins in the gang but it turns out that she's going out with the douchey Jonathan Ault (Will Arnett).Andy Samberg has built a movie around stupidity. However the stupidity is generally not that funny with a few exceptions. One thing is certain. Samberg and cast are fully committed to put every strange weird things on the screen. When it works, it gets some big laughs. This is like a series of extended SNL digital shorts put together in a pretty thin plot.
