AVOID Couples Retreat
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!
