What a big, fat disappointment. Written by Vince Vaughn and Jon Favreau, two of comedy’s best, Couple’s Retreat falls flat on it’s blemished face. Not only is it pretty unfunny, the storyline is weak and predictable and peppered with some horribly bad toilet jokes. I expect a lot better from the writers as well as the cast that includes Jason Bateman, Vince and Jon and Kristen Bell.The story? Four couples fly off to gorgeous Bora Bora to endure couple’s therapy. The various exercises they go through are embarrassing and painful, and all this is meant to be absolutely hilarious. Ha! Don’t expect the laughs of Old School or Dodgeball, or the wit of Arrested Development. This scrapes the bottom of the barrel. Rating: 2 outta 5.
