Wanderlust

People know this movie is rated "R"... right?
I'm looking at all of the negative reviews on here and 90% of them are based on the graphic nature of the film and the fact that it's not for younger audiences... DUH!

The film is rated "R", meaning anyone under 17 needs to be accompanied by an adult to see it in theaters or to purchase it in the store. If you don't want to watch a hilarious movie with shocking obscenity and nudity, go watch something else.

I personally think "Wanderlust" is the perfect film for anyone who's questioned their life's path and I think the movie has some wonderfully understated moral themes about individuality versus group identity.

Jennifer Aniston, Justin Theroux and Paul Rudd are all at their best while they're working together. It's also fun to see three giant movie stars doing a film that was not a sure-fire blockbuster guarantee.

I say, if you're not a prude, see this film; If you are, go see another crappy remake of a fairy-tale or a movie about harmless...

Hysterical
This film was not marketed at all, and so almost everyone missed it. This is a damn shame because it's the funniest movie I've seen in a while. While it's not as smart or original as Role Models, Wanderlust is probably funnier on a joke-by-joke basis. When David Wain is at his best, his humor comes not at the expense of the characters, but because they're so fun to watch. Wain is at his best here, and anyone who's ever enjoyed any of his stuff needs to own this DVD.

A very funny film but not for the prudish!
I was reading snippets from numerous critics about this movie after watching it and I was surprised to find several panning it because it wasn't funny. I get the fact that some people could be offended by the language, "sexy talk" and plenty-o-nudity but not funny? Then I remembered how much I hated "Tim and Eric's Billion Dollar Movie."

As I think back a few hours about this movie I would argue that it might be just another comedy if not for the brilliance and comedic genius of Paul Rudd. Yes, Jennifer Aniston seems to get more beautiful as she gets older and yes, she has her moments (including one involving pixilated boobs) but this is Rudd's movie. He plays George and is married to Linda (Aniston). They live in New York City. After several unsuccessful career moves, Linda makes a pitch to HBO to show a documentary she produced about testicular cancer in penguins. Pretty funny concept right there. She's turned down.

George is a successful business...
