Review:
Unfinished Business is a lazy uninspired comedy that’s a
mish mash of various things while never really coming together at all. The film seems like its fertile ground for
the comedy but it just never pulls itself together. As a result you’re left with various dead
spots which make the relatively short film seem incredibly long. Throw in an oddly shoehorned anti-bullying subplot
and you have a strangely unfunny film even though Dave Franco and Tom Wilkinson
are trying their hardest to pull something out of the film. Vince Vaughn does his usual shtick looking
more haggard than usual, probably how you’ll feel by the end of the film.
