Four pals are stuck in a rut in adulthood: Adam has just been dumped, Lou is a hopeless party animal, Nick is a henpecked husband, and Jacob does nothing but play video games in his basement. But they get a chance to brighten their future by changing their past after a night of heavy drinking in a ski-resort hot tub results in their waking up in 1986.

“Gʀᴇᴀᴛ Wʜɪᴛᴇ Bᴜғғᴀʟᴏ”
Absolute killer soundtrack, loved the wild hogs reference. I really miss seeing John Cusack in good movies.
