Not without charm, Unfinished Business mixes the cute with the raunchy. Penises adorably happen. But besides the schlongenfreude, there’s a subtext about how-did-I-get-here lives, and righting oneself before it’s too late. Is the star himself listening? Read full review

This is just a slightly better than mediocre film with a disconcerting grasp of the truth. Read full review

A once-energetic comic talent (and underrated serious actor) slows down to a pace he must feel matches his audience these days. Read full review

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. Read full review

The result is about as memorable as an evening spent shitfaced at your local Applebee’s. Read full review

A comedy with its heart in the right place and everything else bizarrely out of joint. Read full review

Unfinished Business is the type of movie that is so awful that as it rolls along (its 91-minute runtime feels agonizing) you get more and more restless. Read full review

Great premise that could have worked. I was more looking at the plot as to what it takes to succeed when working with people who take advantage of their upper hand. So the laughs were a welcome relief to what goes on in the business world.

I think this movie has got a lot of unnecessary hate. I know that business movies aren't always the most entertaining in the world.

There are points were the movie is a little boring but for the most part I found the characters pretty funny. A lot of people have been ripping on Dave Franco's performance in this movie but really I thought it was different. Tom Wilkinson was fairly funny as well and really I'd say that both of these guys are funnier than Vince Vaughn who is one of my favorites but I wasn't really happy with him comedy wise in the movie. I'm a little bit worried about True Detective season 2 after watching this movie hopefully he'll be able to pull off a good performance in that.… Expand

HisIt's got issues that keep it from being one of the best comedies out there. Yet there are enough belly laughs to make it a pretty entertaining movie. Some crazy scenarios along with some very funny one liners help keep things mostly enjoyable. Especially with the goofy Dave Franco. His character might be a little too stupid at times, but he still manages to bring some laughs with his cluelessness.

The plot issues are still noticeable though. There's no big payoff in the end and there are moments where we are left wading through too much of it's progression while we wait for the next batch of laughs. This would not as big of an issue if we were given more reason to care about the characters. You do kind of feel sorry for them, but not enough to really invest in their plight. Still, it does achieve some success when it touches on what it feels like to be the odd man out. These moments are sure to click with certain people.

"Unfinished Business" might not be a great movie, but some good laughs make it worth a watch. It will make for a good rental if you are in the mood for some occasionally raunchy R-rated comedy. It's not the biggest winner out there, but much like it's characters there are still reasons to root for it.… Expand

UnFinished Business is partially Entertaining, partially Funny and partially works. However, the excessive amounts of nudity and the excessive amounts of unrealism just puts you out of the whole Goddamn thing!

Gratuitous and unfunny. Unfinished Business is intermittently amusing out of sheer ludicrousness, but it never becomes laugh-out-loud funny due to its horrifically uneven script. Waste of a good cast.

Dave Franco is a terrible in this movie he is annoying and dumb, Tom Wilkinson tries and Vince Vaughn is just "Vince Vaughn," how could a comedy be this boring?

Unfinished Buisness is the top contender for the most forgettable comedy ever made, and I mean forgettable as hell.

Vince Vaughn plays a beat up buisnessman, who teams up with Mike Pancake, played by Dave Franco and Tom Wilkinson to go to the annual business summit, and meet up with clients to sign their deals. But, a massive sex fetish event blockades their plans, as we see hazy party scenes and a lot of silly drug use. Director Ken Scott, makes his movie to be unfunny, even in the sex fetish event. There are great actors murdered here, Nick Frost, Sienna Miller, Tom Wilkinson and even our own, Vince Vaughn. There is not even a hint of funny, in this gross and poorly made comedy. This one doesn't deserve your 10 dollars at the box office, or a rent at Redbox, or your time being wasted watching it on Netflix. Unfinished Buisness gets a perfectly deserving 0 out of 10.… Expand
