Alicia I love this movie so much

SpuffyWeb Sadly Over-hyped

Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!

Dotbankey A lot of fun.

travisbex The main problem with this film is that none of the characters have any redeeming qualities. This makes the rest of the flaws in the movie insurmountable. A funny and talented cast like this should be able to save this film, but because you don't like any of them, it ends up being boring and annoying for the most part.

Davis P 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.

Jackson Booth-Millard I will be honest and say that I think I was more interested in the good cast of stars more than much else about this film, and I had seen that the critics gave it rather low ratings, but I was prepared to give it a go anyway. Basically four couples are focused: married Guitar Hero dealer Dave (Vince Vaughn) and stay at home mother Ronnie (The Heartbreak Kid's Malin Akerman), Jason (Jason Bateman) and Cynthia (Forgetting Sarah Marshall's Kristen Bell) who are trying and failing to conceive, married high school sweethearts Joey (Jon Favreau) and Lucy (Sex and the City's Kristin Davis), and recently separated from his wife Shane (Elf's Faizon Love) and his twenty year old girlfriend Trudy (Kali Hawk). All the couples have something in common, they are struggling to make their relationships work and some of their passion is fading, so as part of a four couples package they travel together to a couples' retreat on a tropical island. It is obvious that Jason and Cynthia really want to go with the program and sort their marriage that is in trouble, while the other couples just want to take in the sights and have fun in the sun, they assume that the couples' exercises will be simple talk together sessions, but they are wrong. The program devised by resort owner Marcel (Jean Reno) requires the couples to get up very early in the morning, take part in strenuous yoga exercise sessions, and more unusual methods of communication and trust, including swimming with sharks. In the process Ronnie and Dave thought they were fine but realise there are some problems, Joey is keen to explore the opposite island for single people where they indulge in a lot of sex, Trudy is keen perhaps to find another kind of man, and the others are in and out of the program trying to sort things out. Resort host Sctanley (Peter Serafinowicz) threatens to report the bad vibes between the couples to Marcel, but following a game of Guitar Hero they all sort themselves out and complete the therapy, and reestablishing their love for each other they are all allowed to enjoy a vacation in the tropics. Also starring Tasha Smith as Jennifer, Carlos Ponce as Salvadore and Temuera Morrison as Briggs. The cast I suppose do alright, there are some amusing moments when the couples are together trying to sort their disagreements and reignite their love, but it is all predictable, the characters are a little stereotypical, and there are not enough great jokes in the script or to watch, a disappointing relationship comedy. Okay!

kai ringler Four couples go on a retreat to a tropical island in the Caribbean to work on their marriages,, what they don't realize is that participation in therapy sessions is mandatory and not optional,, lot's of crude sexual humor and behavior abound in this one,, Vince Vaughn is his usual funny, crude lovable troublemaker always coming up with some crude or perverted joke. it seems though Hollywood has hit the limit with these kinds of movies recently,, this one is mostly re hashed from other movies I felt,, it's not gonna win any Oscars, but then again it's not bottom of barrel trash either, I guess it all depends on what you are looking for from this movie when you watch it,, for me I was looking for laughter, and sexual humor thrown in, it's middle of the road average,, no more no less.
