How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A fizzy, deliberately silly romp through time with a crew of man-children trying to solve a murder that's really just an excuse for absurdist comedy and indulgence. It's a film that knows exactly how stupid it is and leans all the way in.

Reviews

We knew they would not be able to replicate the energy from the first film, especially with John Cusack not returning. <I>HTTM2</i> is a decent effort, but it gets old very quick, and you may start to despise Adam Scott after a short amount of time, maybe even immediately, due to his lazy, buttoned-up performance.
