WANDERLUST

Last night myself and some friends decided on a whim to go to the cinema to see Wanderlust. All we knew  was that it starred Jennifer Aniston and it was a comedy (good start eh?). Anyway, we went on our merry way,  ought our tickets and sat in our seats and awaited to ever tiresome trailers....

Now, baring in mind we went to watch a COMEDY, they began by showing us the trailers for The Devil Inside and The Cabin in the Woods which are both horror/thrillers. Me and my friend were literally hiding behind our hands and covering our ears in fear. Horror movies are like my worst nightmare, I do not do well even watching trailers for them! We both found ourselves left scared and unhappy which is not really how you want to feel when you go out to the cinema. Anyway, those horrible trailers aside, the movie itself was actually good; good in a 'that movie was so bad it was good' kind of way.

Wanderlust is basically about a New York Couple; Linda (Jennifer Aniston) and George (Paul Rudd), who find themselves unemployed and unable to afford their newly bought studio apartment. They leave New York to go and visit George's brother and on their way find themselves staying in a bed and breakfast run by a 'hippy' commune. After some consideration they chose to stay and take on the life these people live which comes which many sacrifices; becoming a vegan, free love rules and no privacy!

I thought the storyline was okay, but it lacked any real depth, and some of the scenes were just terrible! If you want to see a movie filled with embarrassing moments, crude scenes and laughable moments then this will definitely be your type of thing. I just thought some scenes were a tad over the top and unnecessary but I still laughed a lot...

The other cast includes Justin Theroux, Malin Akerman, Michaela Watkins and Ken Marino and many others.

Here's the trailer!
