Couples Retreat-take it or leave it

You know when you see a movie preview a few hundred times and you anticipate the funny parts and can repeat them over and over again? Well Couples Retreat was like that for me. Since, I am a HUGE Vince Vaughn fan, I figured that I would see it anyway. Surprinsgly enough, there were more funny parts to the movie than the 30 second previews!

For those of you who have been hiding under a rock over the past five months (because thats the only way you wouldn't have seen a preview for this movie), I'll bring you up to speed. Couples Retreat is a comedy centereted around four couples who take a vacation to a tropical island. The conflict arises when they find out that their vacation has now become a week long therapy session.

Of course with any movie staring the comedic line up that Couples Retreat had its bound to be comical, yet sometimes the story line can get lost. I felt that that happened a few times here, where a character was thrown in or a line was said and I kept thinking "hmm...that could have been edited out." (I hate to say this since it was written by Jon Favreau and Vince Vaughn and I have loved there past work-hello Break Up and Swingers, but it was just true).

The one liners from Vaughn and cast were hysterical and had me slapping my knee(literally) and overall it was a feel good movie. I would recommend this for maybe a Netflix, not sure its worth the $10 plus popcorn fee.
