farah Noga A comedy movie is supposed to make you laugh and this movie didn't. It was very boring and uninteresting. I have seen so many movies with a simple storyline yet the humor in the movie keeps you watching despite how simple the main plot is. However, this movie is just boring and not amusing.In a comedy there's supposed to be at least one likable character but here all the characters are annoying. Dave Franco's character is supposed to be funny with his dumbness but instead he made me roll my eyes every time he spoke. It's like the writers were trying so hard to make him funny but they ended up making the movie a mess. The only funny scenes where in the trailer.The movie is very predictable you can see where it is going. It didn't have the good storyline or the entertaining humor to keep you interested.

SnoopyStyle Dan Trunkman (Vince Vaughn) refuses to take a 5% pay cut from his boss Chuck Portnoy (Sienna Miller). He starts his own company to compete against them. In the parking lot, he meets Timothy McWinters (Tom Wilkinson) and Mike Pancake (Dave Franco). McWinters has been forced to retire due to age. Pancake failed in his job interview. A year later, the threesome is still struggling. They expect to close a big deal in Portland. Dan's chubby loner son is being bullied and he needs money for private school. He is shocked to find that Jim Spinch (James Marsden) has brought Chuck in to also pitch for the deal. Jim has a relationship with her. Bill Whilmsley (Nick Frost) works for Jim.This is not funny. Vaughn is too angry to be funny. Franco's idiot character is too annoying. Wilkinson is one of the greatest actors around but he's not funny in this. The movie needs to explain what their business is actually. It's a lot of meaningless talk. All of it adds up to nothing funny and rather boring.

FlashCallahan Tired of playing second-fiddle to his obnoxious boss, businessman Dan Trunkman quits and forms his own competing mineral sales firm. He takes a retiring associate and a dim-witted sales applicant with him. After a year and a half of struggle, a promising deal is in sight, but promptly folds, thanks to Dan's ex-boss. Determined to save the deal, Dan and company fly to Germany, where a series of outrageous obstacles awaits.........Given the body of work that Vaughn has given us over the past ten years, you would think that this would be a straight forward, Hall Pass type of movie, where the three main characters get up to nothing but hi-jinks and party hard all the time.But it's nothing like that, in fact, it's quite a depressing movie about three people who go for broke, and have a moment of self realisation halfway through the second act.Wilkinson plays the miserable older chap who hates his wife, life, and just wants to do something special for once. Franco plays the joker of the bunch, always making mistakes and causing havoc, but them there is a revaluation about him having some sort of learning difficulty, and it sours the humour that he was suppose to provide before this, and after.And then there's Vaughn. The usual cocky character has long gone from the likes of that one where he was sarcastic about someone, and we are left with someone who looks like he has a permanent hangover.The humour isn't there, and the desperation of the characters only makes the humour all the more detrimental to the films narrative, and there is also an awful subplot involving his son being bullied, any decent human being would go back to reality, not chase their desperations.Add Nick Frost in a worthless role, and Marsden and Miller there for the cash, and you have a really strange movie that is neither funny, nor dramatic, just existing.....

yinkbling I am a big Vince Vaughn fan. I think he is one of the most hilarious actors out there, and of course with a proved track record. That being said, he didn't exactly bring his A game on this one. A few scanty laughs here and there was just about it. The movie starts with Vince resigning from his workplace and immediately planning to start his own company, he hires the first two people that came out of the company's exit door after him for no solid reasons. After months of anticipating, they finally get to close a big long-awaited deal in Germany, he is met by his former boss who also happens to be lobbying for the same deal, and yea you guessed it, Vince and his team got the handshake. The story is cliché and the characters are just OK (noting extraordinary) except for Dave Franco's character (Mike Pancake) which was particularly annoying. Watch over two big bowls of popcorn because you going to need them to keep you going.
