What the Critics say | ||
Cape Argus / The Star Theresa Smith You will laugh when you watch it and then totally forget about it | 10 | |
Die Burger Amanda de Lange By tye voorspelbaar , maar tog 'n vermaaklike kykervaaring met skerp dialoog | 10 | |
Box Office John P. McCarthy A terrible vacation | 3 | |
Chicago Sunday Times Roger Ebert | 10 | |
Rolling Stone Peter Travers A toddler pees at the start of the mirthless mess that is Couples Retreat and poops just before the end credits roll. How fitting. You too will want to speedily flush this comic waste matter from your memory. | 5 | |
ScreenIt C. Fuchs Akin to vacationing with annoying pairings of various men and women where you can't wait for it to be over. | 4 | |

Rottentomatoes tomatometer Tomatometer Despite a talented cast and some reliably pleasant interplay between Jon Favreau and Vince Vaughn, Couples Retreat leaves viewers stranded in an arid, mirthless comedy. | 2 | |
