Couples Retreat


Another one of them senseless Vince Vaughn comedies. Funny at times. But not all the time.

Plot goes like this: Couples go on a retreat just for the vacation, thinking there is nothing wrong with them. But there is. And in the end, problem solved.

And they had to stretch that to standard cinema length.

Jon Favreau was hilarious here, by the way. Hard to imagine him directing Iron Man. Jean Reno was great, too. It's refreshing to see him in comic roles. And Jason Bateman is always welcome.

Oh, and let me add that I had to google the gong-ringer before I found out that he's Star Wars' Jango Fett.

Girls' reason to watch this: Abs. From that funny yoga instructor with the huge bulge.

Guys' reason to watch this: Malin Åkerman, and Kristen Bell.

Yoga guy is so not the reason. At least for me. And I'm a sucker for abs. But yoga guy? A big N.O. He's just really ewww, even with the abs.

Haha okay. But yoga guy was funny.
