Film Review: Hot Tub Time Machine

My first visit to a film screening. And a barrel of laughs at that! Hot Tub Time Machine, starring John Cusack, provided laughs from the word go. The humour was 'blokey' and immature, but that's no problem if you go in knowing that you're going to be watching a cheesy movie. Where a lot of films in this genre fall down this provides some unexpected twists and edge of the seat moments, in particular with the hotel porter with one arm!

Definitely a laugh-out-loud comedy, but maybe more for the male humour. The '80s throwback fashion and music is a brilliant show of how similar our current fashion is to it was back then. Leg warmers and walkmans galore!

All in all fantastic watch. The best comedy since The Hangover.

I give it 4 Stars ****

Another Interesting read for design students, although it might be a little late for us third years! Breeds an unnerving feeling of slight regret in hindsight of the chances we may have missed over the past 3 years... maybe!

Pop-up Garden



Amazing! (Although totally pointless – but love it) is this fold up garden – just sprinkle in seeds and off you go. Love clever stuff like this. I also love the video, lovely jump animatic stylee.
