If you're looking for a raunchy, hard-R comedy this spring, it appears that UNFINISHED BUSINESS may be your best candidate. Starring Vince Vaughn, Dave Franco, Tom Wilkinson, Sienna Miller, Nick Frost, and James Marsden, the business-trip comedy has shown some good R-rated swagger in its promotions thus far. Does that mean that it will deliver? Hard to say, but today we have an exclusive red-band clip that highlights some of that raunchiness, while also pointing out the lack of substance in Vaughn's exercise leggings and the pain of gym attire humiliation. Ah, good times.
“Is that a crease?”
Here's the synopsis:
A hard-working small business owner (Vince Vaughn) and his two associates (Tom Wilkinson, Dave Franco) travel to Europe to close the most important deal of their lives. But what began as a routine business trip goes off the rails in every imaginable – and unimaginable – way, including unplanned stops at a massive sex fetish event and a global economic summit.
I think this has real potential at being a solid sleeper comedy. If this were another PG-13 hijinks comedy I'd say otherwise, but the foul-mothed nature gives me hope that this could be the unleashed Vaughn that can really shine when let loose. Franco was pretty damn funny in 21 JUMP STREET, so he's proven he can at least hold his own in a studio comedy and seeing Tom Wilkinson as a dirty old man/party animal is a nice change of pace for the actor. Shit, that may be worth the price of admission alone.
UNFINISHED BUSINESS hits theaters on March 6, 2015.
