LastingAware The greatest movie ever!

Crwthod A lot more amusing than I thought it would be.

Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

Walter Sloane Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

Michael Ledo Dan Trunkman (Vince Vaughn) walks out of his company and starts his own firm. He takes with him Tim McWinters (Tom Wilkinson) a 67 year old employee who was let go due to restructuring and Mike Pancake (Dave Franco) a slow kid who was there interviewing for a job. He thinks they are going to build a starship.The work they actually do is selling "swarf" which is metal waste. Apparently this is a tough competitive business whose details the film spares us. Our three misfits travel to Berlin to compete against their old company on a proposal. Dan has all kind of problems at home which he handles by phone until he gets tired and freezes his face causing his family to blame the cell phone and hang up. Oh sorry that was part of the comedy.The subplot with the kids was poorly executed and was literally phoned in. The character development for the two side kicks didn't start until over halfway through and the problem was they sad characters desperately trying to break some mold. This appears to be a film that you would expect Seth Rogen and James Franco to carry with a few ad libs. The jokes failed. Bad script. Actors never had a chance.

follis12 In my work and travels, I've experienced some variation of all of the goofball characters and difficult situations portrayed in Unfinished Business - it speaks to the business life well. For this reason, I'm giving it a higher score than I might have otherwise. Still, it has a 5.5 right now, and that is not accurate. This is actually a very entertaining movie with a good mix of comedy and mild drama.Vince Vaughn character reminded me of myself. Trying balance work, family, and getting emotionally connected with individuals from both sides. The interesting part is the flaws that are so obvious in the people he supports, yet he believes in them and refuses to give up. I like that kind of message.I found it funny, touching, and maybe just a little inspirational. Give it a chance - you can do a lot worse out there.

Saiph90 This is a comedy which lacks any form of amusement, it is disjointed, atrocious script and actors who look like they would be happier anywhere but on this set. Ken Scott have form with another turkey in Delivery Man, thankfully a movie I have missed but apparently as unfunny as this film with a cast of Vince Vaughn, Tom Wilkinson, Dave Franco, Sienna Miller, James Marsden you would hope for a better effort this is utterly boring film without a laugh to be found. Tom Wilkinson is an excellent actor and I am bewildered he got roped into this and looks like he can not wait to escape this mess, Vince Vaughn looks more bored than me, I think the makers knew it was a turkey and threw naked bodies at it in an effort to attract the pubescent teenagers market. There are scenes and concepts which simply are confusing and disjointed, three spring to mind, the spa scene, the deer on the road and the businessman 42, none of this adds anything. I suspect the film was edited to an inch of its leave to save it, it failed miserably, I think lots of it ended up on the cutting room floor leaving a meaningless mess, I think it wanted to be the Hangover, if you can not deliver humour then try for charm and wit, this has neither. When you think a character called Mike Pancake is laugh out loud you have problems. I wish I could give less than 1. The only amusement we got was thinking about the poor actors who auditioned for the toilet scene.

thesar-2 This probably just flew past the desk of Adam Sandler's agent because of the hard-R material, but it Fng should've been a Sandler flick. (No disrespect there…just mimicking this mess.)With all-but aimless man-boy misadventures, Unfinished Business was, in fact, on the Sandler track. If you're fond of his movies or, men wandering around while telling flat "jokes," this is for you. Mercifully, it's not as bad as the other adrift salesmen comedy, Old Dogs, it's just a first-draft script involving three employees with zero chemistry and their globe-trotting antics following the movie's own Jerry Maguire spoof scene. This is sad, too, because at times, there was heart and in the beginning, I did laugh a bit here and there. But, once the boys made it to Germany, the laughter ceased, the 20-years-too-late jokes and stereotypes were overkill and the movie, while trying to reach a climax, wandered as pointlessly our "heroes."Can't really recommend it, though I didn't hate it. Mainly because, as tired and disinterested as he looked, Vaughn still made me laugh the most in an otherwise unfunny comedy.
