Couples Retreat

Well, Vince Vaughn has grown up a bit since The Breakup and certainly matured since The Wedding Crashers, and I say it's about time. Vaughn (Dave), Jon Favreau (Joey), and Dana Fox wrote the script, and Peter Billingsley (Four Christmases, Iron Man, and The Break-Up with Vaughn) directs. In Couples Retreat four couples spend a week in paradise (insert luscious scenery here) alternately seeking or denying what state their relationships are in. The story is a simple but revealing look at romance and relationships, which can be very funny... and is in this entertaining film. A few other faces you'll recognize from the small screen are Jason Bateman (Arrested Development), Kristin Bell (Veronica Mars), Kristin Davis (Sex in the City), and from the big screen Jean Reno (DaVinci Code). This is a good one that's not too deeply emotional to take a guy to, but leave the kids at home.
