Wedding Crashers it ain't.
Critics were not moved by Vince Vaughn's latest (attempted) laugh-fest, Unfinished Business. The movie currently has a low 14% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. We rounded up the best critic slams of the film.
Paste BN's own Brian Truitt:
"This film is just bad Business for everyone involved." (Read the full review here.)
Los Angeles Times:
"A sluggishly paced collection of go-nowhere sight gags, flat-footed set pieces and incoherent business chatter that offers few laughs and little real payoff."
Chicago Sun-Times:
"Vince Vaughn, continuing his decade-long streak of mediocre comedies, plays another variation on his fast-talking, slightly oafish but goodhearted regular guy."
New York Post:
"That Unfinished Business thinks it's a really fun idea to have a leading character named Mike Pancake tell you all you need to know."
San Francisco Chronicle:
"What are we to say about a comedy that makes you walk out feeling lousy, that's like a parade of beaten virtue and (mostly) sadistic power?"
The AV Club:
"Like several of Vaughn's most recent comedies, this one concerns itself with keeping its heart in the "right" place -- i.e., a safe distance from the unsavory business of laughter."
The New York Times:
"Don't expect impressive profit margins."
