The way the film handles time travel is interesting, but that's still a goofy, lowbrow comedy, so better to watch with friends or when you just want to switch your brain off. Throwback to the ’80s is still funny, especially when the characters don't realize it immediately even if everyone wears neon-colored ski suits. The Crispin Glover (as a nod to Back to the future?) character's gag is fun too. Having the characters keep their present-day appearance helps highlight the cringe factor of some time-travel movies, where they end up sleeping with teenagers while being mentally in their forties. Special shout-out to the soundtrack too—it’s refreshing to hear bands like Mötley Crüe, Autograph, INXS, Cutting Crew and Poison in a movie. And it's funny to see Sebastian Stan here when you know he will later play Tommy Lee in the Pam & Tommy series.
