That was an excellent one.

This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Connor: We saw this movie on a plane with headphones and saw the part where the Asian guy was dancing. Me and my Dad and years later it's our families favorite movie we've watched it over and over and even showed it to the rest of our family and friends and they think it's hilarious! We love it still watch it over and over. First we watched it through Netflix then we bought the movie on iTunes.

If you're not a fan of silly jokes, then this isn't for you. And I'm not talking Adam Sandler's silly, one-dimensional garbage, I'm talking so silly it's almost clever. Will Ferrell was suppose to take the lead role of the high-flying, amateur stuntman, instead the task goes to Andy Samberg, who's decent enough, if not a little unimaginative. Alongside on-screen brother Jorman Taccone and friends Bill Hader and Danny McBride, there's fun to be had, but not enough to propel the story. Some moments outdo others, mainly the ones involving the unwell Ian McShane, whom Samberg is trying to raise money for. They fight and they squabble, and Samberg's only doing this good deed so he can finally beat up his step-dad. Hot Rod is mildly funny, somewhat enjoyable, doing little harm in the process.

Hot Rod is a good movie with a well written storyline and a fantastic comedic cast. It is a very fun movie that you will likely enjoy from start to finish, it's a very simple story, it's obviously nothing inspirational or uplifting, but it's just a very enjoyable comedy. The main thing that makes this movie so good is the ridiculous dialogue between the characters and of course the great chemistry between cast members, many of them come from Saturday Night Live and you can tell they are close. My favourite scenes are the ones between Andy Samberg and Isla Fisher, their chemistry was pure and the relationship between the characters definitely had me in stitches the most. It's certainly nowhere near perfect, but Hot Rod is a very quick and very fun movie that I would recommend to anyone looking for a good comedy.

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.
