Couples Retreat: This is one of those whatever movies. Not horrid, but not good enough to spend the time to watch. The movie is about four couples who head off to a marriage therapy island called ‘Eden.’ One couple’s marriage is falling apart, because of the pressures related to their inability to conceive a child (and the fact that the husband is super anal). A second couple is straying, but is sticking with their marriage probably out of comfort. A third feels like they have a perfect marriage. The final couple is more of a fling where an older guy’s wife has left him and he’s now dating a 20 year-old. The first couple convinces the others to join them due to the fact that there is a group discount. Once on the island, relationship are dissected, awkward situations develop and all ends happily. Three of the four couples aren’t all that believable. The one couple that seems to have some nice chemistry is Dave (Vince Vaughn) and Ronnie (Malin Akerman).
