Couples retreat is a well casted and enjoyable film. Kristen Bell was great in her role, she was funny and enjoyable in the role. Jason Bateman is good in his too, he plays his role well and really tackles it. Vince Vaughn is great here, I really enjoyed him here, I think he showed off his acting abilities well. All the other actors were good too, like I said before, well casted. The script is alright, not awesome, but it suffices. The movie is funny at times, especially with one of the male muscular sexy islanders, and how the wives react to him. The last about 45 minutes is the best of the whole movie, it has heartfelt dramatic moments, and some fun scenes with an energetic atmosphere. I thought this was pretty entertaining overall. 7/10 for couple retreat.

This was a very funny movie. It not only had humor, it had heart and redeeming values. All the scenes with the individual Therapy Sessions were particularly funny. All the actors are strong, and the rapport with Vince Vaughn and Jon Favreau has not lost a step. The nicest surprise in this film would have to be the banter between Vaughn and Peter Serafinowicz. The movie also pleasures visually with the scenery of Bora Bora. Some people may very well be offended by the yoga instructor, although he adds to the comedy as well. The children in the movie are cute, and provide some humor, but have small parts, the movie is mostly taking place at the retreat Island known as "Eden". I enjoyed this film and would recommend it for at least a few viewings.

I must admit to being a fan of Vince Vaughan. I'm pretty sure he has no pretensions of being a great actor and he always seems to play the same character but it's a likable and charming character nonetheless. This is a film for 30 something plus couples to watch and enjoy. It's not a film that will particularly appeal to a younger audience or the kind of guy that thinks the only good film has to include some kind of superhero. For the silent majority however this is a very entertaining and watchable film with plenty of laughs throughout. Yes you know how it will end but the fun is watching the characters get there. Of the people I know who watched this all have enjoyed it which makes a rating of 5.4 even more laughable. The vast majority of voters on here are men however and therefore any film not totally aimed at male testosterone is always going to be unfairly rated on here. Just note that this film made a large profit and rightly so.The cast is first rate and there are no weak performances. They all seemed to be having a good time and that shone through in their performances. This is an excellent comedy and if you like Vince Vaughan i'm pretty sure you'll like this.

Tries to be a zany comedy and a touching drama at the same time, and fails at both. Any yoga scene in a movie is a reach at comedy and I don't even need to point out what's wrong with Sctanley with a c. I thought the funniest part was the sauna scene where Favreau and Vaughn just riffed on ridiculous sex themes like in the good old days. Otherwise, it was just a bit boring and seemed like more of an excuse for a bunch of actors to have a holiday. Throwing a movie together and making some money seemed like an afterthought, while there would have also been pay cheques coming in from guitar hero and the Bora Bora Tourism Authority. The scenery in Bore Bora was amazing though.
