- This movie was funny but not as funny as I thought it would be.
- There was a lot of wordy dialogue throughout so there were moments that kind of got slow for me.
- Vince Vaughn was hilarious as usual. He plays the same kind of character over and over but does it well.
- Actually, they all did a great job showcasing their comedic acting abilities and it was a really great cast that I enjoyed watching.
- Malin Akerman is cute as a button.
- Kristin Davis has a great body. She was the oldest of the female leads but she looked just as good as the young bucks. It's always fun to see her in other movies after loving her so much as Charlotte in Sex In The City.
- I really like the storyline. The idea of couples working on their marriages and re connecting.
- That freakin' island was amazing!! I wanted to jump through the screen and be there myself it was so beautiful and idyllic. It was filmed in Bora Bora which is an island in Tahiti.
