Hot Rod is about a young man in arrested development who strives to be as amazing a stuntman as his dearly departed father and beat his stepfather in hand to hand combat. Don’t worry. Hot Rod is a comedy starring Andy Samberg. Hot Rod is torn between being a spoof of 80s films about lackluster young men with lofty ambitions without the abilities to match and playing it straight. Hot Rod has funny moments-most of them not involving Andy Samberg. Hot Rod is utterly forgettable, but ultimately harmless fun. Skip it.
