IMDB

Three middle-aged friends return to the place where they had the best time while in high school, a ski resort, after one of the friends tries to commit suicide. They're also joined by John Cusack's nephew. Time travel shenanigans ensue.
This movie is essentially what you think it is. It tries a little too hard to please, but overall it is sort of fun. There are laughs, but also some really lame moments that made me feel embarrassed for watching. I kind of felt the same way about The Hangover, honestly. There's a lot of concepts taken from Back to the Future, but they add in gross out humor and drugs. If that sounds appealing, then by all means watch it.

6.5/10

Rating Scale Explanation

The rating scale is simple. 1 is the worst 10 is the best and 5 is mediocre. 5.5 or greater is a movie that I at least find enjoyable. You could also think of 5 as a zero and 1 as a negative 5. I feel like that sounds even more convoluted.
