    Hot Rod: Not A Hot Moivie

    Hot Rod started off funny but a few minutes into the movie I knew it would be stupid. The acting was terrible! The story was so stupid and there was really only one funny part and it was Rod falling down a hill. He came out without a scratch but when he falls of his motor bike he almos dies. A very stupid part was when he was with his brother and he keeps repeating the words "Cool Beans." And also when he was about to do his stunt he looks at animals in his head. One more thing, The whole movie sucks! When it ended I actually screamed "Boo." DO NOT waste your money on this movie. I hope that it dosen't make anymore money and I hope that the actors are never in any other movie again. I advise you not to see the Worlds Worst movie ever.

    It's About TIme!

    So I am a HUGE fan of silly comedies and it's been a LONG time since something came out that really had me in tears.... this accomplished that in the first 15 minutes.... and had me laughing just as hard the rest of it... I took my 13 year old son, who LOVED it as much as me. It was just a REALLY good comedy! As said before, and I agree, this movie probably won't win any Oscars.. and if you're not a fan of silly comedy, then it's probably not for you. BUT, if you have even a bit of funny bone in you, GO SEE THIS!!! This is well worth the price of admition and I cannot wait for it to come onto DVD to buy it and watch it again.. and probably again... and again.... you get the point. :D
