Couples Retreat - The Filthy Critic

Couples Retreat, as reviewed by The Filthy Critic


"Couples Retreat was "written" by Vince Vaughn and Jon Favreau, along with Dana Fox , responsible for some spectacularly shitty romantic comedies recently (one so bottom-feeding it starred Ashton Kutcher). I'm guessing it took one lunchtime to pen it, but they were done by dessert. Vaughn and Favreau started out in Hollywood thinking they were going to make a difference, tell original stories and be originals. Instead, they've both become fat and lazy jackasses who make crap so long as it pays well. This time, they've made a flabby, formulaic romantic comedy that forgot the romance, the comedy and anything resembling a plot. It doesn't even try its lousiness look or sound good. It's fucking awful."

"Couples Retreat is just a shitty movie, written and starring people who wouldn't care less about it or us. Watching it is a crappy way to spend two hours, as it probably was for Favreau and Vaughn to write it."
