Review of Unfinished Business (2015) by Thequietgamer — 15 Aug 2015

It'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.
