Watch: Hot Rod 2007 123movies, Full Movie Online – Rod Kimble is a naïf, a slacker living in a small US town with his mom, his younger brother, and his stepfather whose respect he craves. He also misses his dead dad, whom he thinks was Evel Knievel’s back-up. Rod, a man-child, believes that he is a stunt man. When his stepfather needs an operation, with help from his brother and his slacker pals, Rod hatches a plan to set a school-bus-jumping record on his moped. First, his crew and he have to raise money to rent the buses and build the ramp. Trouble is, Rod’s inept at his chosen career. Looming failure is complicated by the return of Denise, Rod’s next-door neighbor and secret heartthrob, who is home from college. Is public humiliation at hand?.
Plot: For Rod Kimball, performing stunts is a way of life, even though he is rather accident-prone. Poor Rod cannot even get any respect from his stepfather, Frank, who beats him up in weekly sparring matches. When Frank falls ill, Rod devises his most outrageous stunt yet to raise money for Frank’s operation — and then Rod will kick Frank’s butt.

It was funny in some parts, but everything else felt forced and over the top.
_**Andy Samberg plays an Evel Knieval wannabe in this fun flick**_A brave-but-klutzy moped stuntman with a fake mustache (Andy Samberg) plans his most death-defying stunt, jumping 15 buses, to attain the money needed to save his stepfather with a weak heart (Ian McShane). Isla Fisher, Sissy Spacek, Bill Hader and Danny McBride costar.
“Hot Rod” (2007) is quirky with goofy humor, but good-hearted. There’s thankfully no raunch to be found. Samberg is effective as the protagonist while Isla is always a winsome pleasure. There’s not much else to say except this stunt comedy fills the bill when you just wanna turn off your brain for some silly fun.
The soundtrack is notable with several tracks by Europe, etc., including “You’re the Voice” by John Farnham.
The movie runs 1 hour, 28 minutes, and was shot in the general Vancouver area, British Columbia.
GRADE: B-/B
listen to this mother…we all loved this movie!
Our family consists of a fiftyish dad, a fortyish mom and two teenaged daughters. We all saw this movie during a sneak preview just before it opened, and I (the mom) laughed so hard I could barely breathe sometimes. I had to stop laughing so I could hear what I was missing. One of my daughters said it was a cross between Napoleon Dynamite and Talladega Nights…maybe. It was completely improbable, I mean, who’s going to be doing stunts on a moped? But it was so sweet. The characters never over reached who they were or tried too hard. It never felt forced, like so many movies like this do. The best part was when Rod went to his “Quiet Place”. I saw one summary that said it would have been better with Will Ferrell…I’ve enjoyed everything Will Ferrell has done lately, but Andy Samberg was perfect for this movie. The ending was pretty predictable, but it was like taking a trip…you knew where you’d end up, but it was so much fun along the way. We definitely loved this movie and recommend it to all our friends (and you!)
