Yeah, why not? I wrote these while I was watching them at the Drive In. So I figure since I am reviewing stuff, I might as well review movies as well. Right now I'm watching Hot Tub Time Machine at the drive-in. It's the story of three guys in their 40s who head back to the ski resort they visited when they were teens in the 80s. It is pretty funny so far, especially for someone who grew up in the 80s like me. It's definately not a family movie. There's a lot of sex and nudity and drug use. There's no romance at all so far, so that is great! The big problem the three friends face is that one of the guys, John Cusack, has brought his 20 year old nephew with him on the trip. He's gone back in time, too. If the guys don't do everything just as they did back in 1986, the nephew won't even be born! The guy so far are having a hard time recreating their past as it happened. Uh oh. Leave it to the John Cusack character to start up a romance. Ugh. Well it's not too bad yet. The movie almost over and so far, though it comes dangerously close with this weird theme of the 80s ski preps thinking that the time travelers are Soviet spies, it hasn't jumped the shark. And there it is! A good ending and not one shark was jumped! Now on to the second feature, the name of which I cannot recall!
Okay I have no idea what this movie is but its set in Pittsburgh! They are in the Warhol now!
Now they are talking about the Penguins!
There's the Mellon Arena! Okay I looked it up, it's called She's Out of My League and it is a romantic comedy but so far it is good! It's about this dopey sort of guy who is starting to date this really amazing girl. None of his friends think it will work out because she seems to be, well, out of his league. So far no shark jumping, although the lovely couple will probably break up and yes, probably get back together. Okay the movie jumped the shark with one of those 'catch the plane! We're really in love!' Moments, but still, all in all, good, funny and sweet movie and it was really nice to see Pittsburgh featured!
