Don't waste your time with THESE movies

Mr. Beans
Starring: Rowan Atkinson, Emma de Caines and Willem Date
This movie is a comedy about named Mr. Beans who wins a trip to Cannes. There he unintentionally separates a young boy from his father. He looks for ways on getting them together and the journey; he discovers a lot of thing in life and love.
I did not have the patience for this movie. Most of the movie is viewed from Mr. Beans’s video camera creating a “Road Movie”. I thought it was bad quality and strongly disliked the Chaplin-esque feeling of the movie.  The "comedy" of the movie is his clumsiness and his faces but in my opinion it wasn’t enough for it to be considered a comedy it just looked like a movie trying VERY hard to be funny.

Couples Retreat
Starring: Vince Vaughn, Malin Akerman and Jon Favreau
This movie is a comedy about four comedy couples who go on a journey to a tropical island resort. One of the couples is there to work on their marriage and the other three are there to have fun in the sun. When they get there, they discover that therapy isn’t optional. Throughout the therapy sessions, each couple learned a lot of their relationship.
This movie had a negative impact on me because I felt like it was not edited fully. The selection of the scenes was badly organized and irrelevant. It was hard to follow and lacking logic. This is one of the few movie I can actually say that I fell asleep.

Nacho Libre
Starring: Jack Black, Ana de la Reguera and Hector Jimenez
This movie is about a guy named Nacho who was a cook by day in a Mexican Orphanage and a masked wrestler by night in order to raise money to save the orphanage from closure.
This is the longest and most redundant movie I've seen. It seemed like there was barely a plot and was very slow paced. I thought some of the jokes were offensive and it just a waste of time to watch because they’re direction towards the movie did not make sense.
