  Spare yourself the 'Rod'
  
  This is a goofy comedy, and to be totally honest with you, not particularly in the best of ways. Loser Rod has issues with his stepdad and the girl next door, ... read more »

  Great laugh
  
  This is such a funny, tongue in cheek film. Loved the psycho stepdad. Teenagers will go nuts for this. Lots of laughs and well worth a watch.

  The unfunniest sketch compliation you may ever watch
  
  Hot Rod is a waste of time, effort, and 90% of Europe's back catalogue. What few laughs there are, are hidden amongst more random idiotic drivel than the ... read more »
