songbirdmc 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.

blrnani The humour seems to be aimed at the pre-teen market, while the frequent flashing of male and female 'naughty bits' is evidently an attempt to drag in curious adolescents who don't have access to proper porn. The comedic context was adequately established, with a (youngish) middle-aged couple pushed out of NY by the burden of an economic malaise that always falls on the most vulnerable and reluctant to submit to the insufferable arrogance of his nouveau-riche brother. They return to the commune they'd spent a night at on the journey down. The leads were played by probably the USA's most likeable couple, JA and PR. And they are supported by a cast that includes Alan Alda and JA's husband to be, Justin Theroux. So what could possibly go wrong? Well, as audiences are increasingly discovering, it's all in the script and this one, apart from isolated moments, does not come close to doing the film justice. Indeed PR's rehearsal in the mirror to get himself in the mood for infidelity is possibly the most pathetic movie scene I have ever witnessed, so far short is it of either being sexy or funny. Do they really think US audiences are stupid?

oncel_ilhan 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.

ty_lattimore2007 Wanderlust is one of the funniest Jennifer Anniston movies ever! I was a bit skeptical because I seldom find her films that funny besides "The Break Up.""Object of My Affection" was pretty good too. This was by far one of her best films. Paul Rudd(George) and Jennifer(Linda) work well together. The heavy lifting is done mostly by the supporting cast. Ken Marino as George's successful brother was a riot. George's wife played by Michaela Watkins, was killing me with her one liners. If you want to laugh hard then this film is it. Justin Theroux as Seth was priceless. The hippie commune is just like a mental hospital run by patients. Malin Åkerman as Eva was hysterical too.
