Slow pace in the most part of the movie.

Overrated and overhyped

It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

I love Jennifer Aniston and Paul Rudd, but even they couldn't make this film enjoyable. I hate sounding like an old fart (I'm 37) but comedies are just not what they used to be! I remember laughing so hard at "The Money Pit" that I could barely catch my breath and my stomach hurt. Comedies used to be amazing. I don't think "Wanderlust" even got a chuckle out of me. It seems like comedies for some time now try to use shock tactics, and rambling ridiculous dialogue, strange facial expressions, and pure raunch to get laughs from the audience. I don't find it the least bit amusing. In fact it's so disappointing to think that the best of comedies are behind us and never to be seen again. I thought with "Bridesmaids" old school comedy would be making a comeback but unfortunately there were a lot of modern tactics mentioned above in that film as well. It had good moments of comedy, but it was also dredged in absurdity. I'll just keep hoping that real comedy finds its way back to the audiences that love it. In the mean time based on many of these reviews many veiwers seem happy enough with the crap they spew out to us.

I usually don't bother to warn others against truly bad pieces of Hollywood sharp practice like "Wanderlust", but this time I'll make an exception.Essentially, this is what it all boils down to:* Women don't want to work, but want to be "provided for" by men (whose job, according to Apatow and Co., is to support these fickle, ungrateful women).* Hippies are old, stupid and ugly, and vegetarians secretly crave animal flesh.* Don't ever stray too far from Breederville, you'll only find *icky, weird, liberal people out there!*I should have known better than to waste my time on this, but I like most of the cast (in other things).PSA to film lovers: Avoid At All Costs

I was just at the page of Paul Rudd to see which movies of him I haven't watched yet. And then i saw this movie. I was like: "Paul Rudd and Jennifer Aniston together in a comedy movie. I must watch this one:)"The movie tells the Story of a couple who has a financial problem since the man has lost his job and they have made a wrong Investment. What they do to deal with this problem is being told in a funny and romantic way. The couple Encounter a "weird" Society that lives in some place like a village. The ppl of this Society are isolated from the world. They have their own unic style, their way of Entertainment and their own rules. When the couple Encounters this Society, they find it very interesting and decide to be a part of it. After they start living with this Society, they understand that this scoiety has also some cons. The question is if they can continue living with this society despite the cons. The cons, which could be devastating for the ordinary*(the ones outside of this community) ppl.I laughed a lot during the movie because of the weird Features of this community and the funny reactions of Paul Rudd :) I highly recommend this movie if you wanna laugh and get away from the ordinary daily life.

I mean, 90% of the time you will think "did they really think this stuff can be funny? Or even interesting? Is it really possible to get THIS low?". Folks, if the story sucks, how can the movie be good? This dough is the ultimate cloned-stereotype festival. Not funny at all, incredibly boring when not disturbing here and there. In spite of her age, looks like Jennifer Aniston would do anything to get undressed. After all she didn't spend all that money on cosmetic surgery to keep the silicone into her shirt, so any script requiring her to drop her clothes is a yes, regardless how crappy it is. OK, she has never been as gorgeous as Angelina Jolie, but she used to be somewhat averagely pretty. Now her face is made of rubber making her look like Gary Busey, yet another Hollywood transvestite, hurray...As about the movie, it's cheesier than cheddar. It seems the ideas for funny gags and interesting story simple didn't come out, so they just tried to clone Borat hardly being nearly as funny, when not spreading wrong, twisted values: life sucks unless it's hi voltage, people who don't like reality shows and fast foods all are brainless weirdos talking to trees, you have to stay with your wife regardless whom she sleeps with. If you can't make em laugh at least strike em hard. Undelivered, too boring to strike anybody. And no, all wrong. Life is good in big cities as well provided you aren't an imbecile, I detest crappy TV shows and junk food and I am not a weirdo, if anybody's wife sleeps with another man they are going to kick her out goodbye. Empty story without any sense, dull characters and not a single laugh. I ended up hoping some random lunatic would come up and kill everybody, just to have some actual facts I could mention in this review, but it simply didn't happen. Nothing interesting happens in this bad clone of the lowest spoof flicks with unfunny comedians.I noticed some reviewers gave this a 10. Either part of the crew or complete morons. If you give this crap a 10/10, how much do you assign to a real comedy, say "A Fish Called Wanda" ? 650/10 ?Stay away, nothing can be this terrible on TV anyway. If it really sucks, it's the same stuff.
