Couples Retreat: comedy
Vince Vaughn and Kristen Bell stars in a comedy about couples trying to find happiness again in a tropic island paradise.. sounds like a good old fashion romp fest right? Aw..no. What follows is one of the worst films to come out in a while. Mind you, it has the really hot Kristen Bell but that’s not enough to save this mess. The movie sets up allot of gags involving sharks, bowel movements but there is never any payoffs. I have to give them thumbs up for trying..but trying doesn’t bring money into the box-office. The last great film from Vince Vaughn was Swingers and he’ll continue trying until he writes the Wedding Crashers 2. Overall, there are minimal laughs and from the preview that I attended, allot of guys were leaving the theatre 30 minutes into the film. If you can survive the whole movie, there is a message…marriage is hard work. I don’t know what’s harder…marriage or watching the entire film again!

The shit previews and over-the-hill Vaughn wasn't enough warning?
~:Mr.Anderson:~
the masseuse shoving his ass in vince vaugn's face in the previews....
I refuse to see that movie.
Robtard
I think that might have been Jason Bateman's face.

I wasn't going to bother with it anyway... sorry to hear you wasted money on it.

there was a free screening of this on tuesday, but i stayed home and didn't bother
NemeBro
Yeah I don't really need a warning.
I had planned on staying at home touching myself rather than seeing this anyway.
I would go see Zombieland a second time before watching this movie.
MildOne4
Damn. I thought this movie would be funny

My girlfriend was trying to get us to go see this. I had to tell her several times about the horrible reviews it is getting to get her to not make me go.

I would not recommend anyone under the age of 18 seeing this movie. We saw it tonight with another couple and thought it hilarious.

yeah, that one's good too. Ever since i watched, Swingers, Made and The big Empty. I feel like i know what Vince Vaughn is going to say before he says it. Still love the dude. He definitely has a unique comedic timing that is perfect for cinema.

total bummer, I was waiting for this movie to come out for a while... not because of the previews, but because it was the next vince vaughn upcoming movie.
saw the preview, wow it really sucked. But I was planning to see the actual movie with my girlfriend. I a torn now as there is no other new movies out, I have seen near them all.
Zombieland tomorrow tho

Jonathan Ross gave it a pretty decent review on Film 2009. It's not aimed at a young audience and I think half the problem is that people thought it was.

Kristen Bell seems the only logical reason I would shell 9 dollars for this trash.
Discos
I am seeing this movie tomorrow night so I will no doubt give it the good ole review.
MildPossession
Well then, I must rush out to see if Ross thinks it's decent...

He's a million times better than Mark Kermode.
So less of the sarcasm lest I slap you, woman!
MildPossession
I don't listen to Kermode outside of Horror.

Should've stopped before "outside".
