Directed by David Wain, director of 'Role Models', 'Wanderlust' centers on a married couple trying to escape the pressures of sudden New York economy crashes and the expectations of modern society. Stumbling across a Georgian commune where free love rules, the couple must survey the alternate living conditions and decide where they ultimately belong, while meeting a few odd and eccentric characters who try desperately to sway their decision.
'Wanderlust' was an enjoyable film, but nowhere near as entertaining as I had expected when I first heard that it was to star Paul Rudd and Jennifer Anniston, two of the best known actors of comedy over the last two decades. Having both starred in the highly successful television show 'Friends' and each progressing onto numerous blockbusters since that time, 'Wanderlust' seemed to have all of the material that a great comedy should have, yet in my opinion it did not deliver.
Perhaps it would be more enjoyable for those who enjoy a lighter kind of comedy and all fans of rom-coms.
Starring Paul Rudd, Jennifer Anniston, Justin Theroux, Malin Akerman and Joe Lo Truglio.
