Unfinished Business Reviews
The movie gets dumber and more desperate as it goes.
| Mar 20, 2015
It seems to have been designed as a family guy's workplace comedy on tour with the boys, a kind of EuroBusinessTrip with a heart: it fails dismally on all counts.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Mar 12, 2015
The crude humor and cloying sentiment mix about as well as motor oil and vinegar...

Jesus wept, Vince Vaughn has done it again - kicking the putrefying corpse of feel-bad scrotal comedy around our screens with the dead-eyed stare of the fiscally medicated.
| Original Score: 1/5 | Mar 8, 2015
Shallow, dimwitted and inept. Makes "The Hangover" look like "Glengarry Glen Ross."
| Original Score: 1/4 | Mar 6, 2015
Jammed between pratfalls that include a man's face and a penis coming together is a sentimental story about the challenges of being a good, supportive dad. The movie wants you to hug your family - but wait, whoa, look at those tatas!

A tonal mess that jumbles elements of PG-rated fare with Eurotrip-esque shenanigans.
| Original Score: C | Mar 6, 2015
Not without charm, Unfinished Business mixes the cute with the raunchy.
| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Mar 6, 2015
There's plenty to like in Unfinished Business, even though viewers expecting the debauchery of a Wedding Crashers will likely leave disappointed.

The film limps along, with no sense of comic timing, slapstick reality, or even spontaneity. It's so airless, and yet it feels heavy as lead.
| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Mar 6, 2015
Vince Vaughn, continuing his decade-long streak of mediocre comedies plays another variation on his fast-talking, slightly oafish but goodhearted regular guy.

The whole point of Vince Vaughn's cinematic existence is that he's a paragon for reformed chauvinism. He's an irrepressible but highly tamable id. Not so here.
| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Mar 5, 2015
Don't expect impressive profit margins.
| Mar 5, 2015
There's enough big laughs combined with sweet family drama to make Unfinished Business an eventful journey.
| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Mar 5, 2015
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.

Vince Vaughn would make an excellent Willy Loman in a revival of Death of a Salesman. Here, he has the presence, charm, desperation and sense of yearning that characterise Arthur Miller's doomed anti-hero. Unfortunately, this is a very goofy comedy.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Mar 5, 2015
If only I could have left Unfinished Business unfinished... Five minutes would have been enough with this dull, dated tosh, so flaccid were the jokes.
| Original Score: 1/5 | Mar 5, 2015
A weird and sadly sour mash-up of wild, raunchy comedy, underdog triumph, and treacly family story
| Original Score: C | Mar 5, 2015
Now where have we seen this before? Was it "Jerry Maguire?" Or an episode of "The Office?" Both. Except it was funnier then.
| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Mar 5, 2015
A fumbling mix of sentimental family fable and gross-out sex comedy.
