A dirty secret around The Playlist parts: we love Vince Vaughn. Or rather, a few of us really like Vince Vaughn when he is in R-Rated comedies like “Wedding Crashers” or…. well, maybe mostly “Wedding Crashers.” The last few years have been more than unkind to almost all of his comedy choices and the comedy projects that he and his team develop, from "Fred Claus," "Four Christmases," "Couples Retreat," The Dilemma," "The Watch" to more recent fare like “Delivery Man.” In short, Vaughn hasn’t starred in a worthwhile comedy since “The Break-Up” in 2006 which itself is still uneven (but much more grown-up than you’d expect).
And so he’s got another comedy in the works, “Unfinished Business,” which once again taps Ken Scott, the French Canadian director of “Delivery Man” (which is a remake of Scott’s own “Starbuck” — Hollywood came knocking and he answered). The movie is about a hard-working small business owner (Vaughn) and his two associates who travel to Europe to close the most important deal of their lives. But myriad complications ensue, including an unplanned rivalry with an ex-lover and ex-business partner.
“Unfinished Business” co-stars Tom Wilkinson, Dave Franco, Sienna Miller, and June Diane Raphael. It comes out next week on March 6 (which doesn’t bode well considering how little you’ve heard about the film). Just in time, 20th Century Fox has delivered the movie’s first, sorta-NSFW red-band clip from the film via JoBlo (another clip was released earlier this week and you can watch it below too). Watch below and sound off if you think this is something you’re going to pay to see in theaters.
