A comedy centered around four Midwestern couples who settle into a tropical-island resort for a vacation.

They soon discover that participation in the resort’s couples therapy is not optional. Suddenly, their group-rate vacation comes at a price.

Critics' reviews

"There are worse ways to spend time (...) a slight but sweet coming-of-age story for middle-aged couples."

Colin Covert: Minneapolis Star Tribune
"[Couples retreat] offers cliches instead of fun (...) completely predictable"

Tom Long: Detroit News
"The cast got to spend a month shooting on Bora Bora. So that explains why they're in the movie (...) Rating: ★ (out of four)"

Peter Travers: Rolling Stone
"'Couples Retreat' is a comedy of exhaustion. But it is the comedy itself, in both concept and execution, that seems tired"

A. O. Scott: The New York Times
"Though I enjoy nearly everyone on-screen in 'Couples Retreat', I found it pretty meager and more than a little depressing"

Michael Phillips: Chicago Tribune
"It contains little comedy (...) and no suspense (...) It doesn't even make you think you'd like to visit its island paradise (...) Rating: ★★ (out of four)"

Roger Ebert: Chicago Sun-Times
