Vince Vaughn’s new movie ‘Unfinished Business’ has left a permanent stain on Vaughn’s acting resume.
According to reports, ‘Unfinished Business’ is the worst opening weekend of Vaughn’s acting career.
Fox’s R-rated comedy “Unfinished Business” opened to $1.8 million Friday (behind two other Fox films, including the fourth weekend of “Kingsman: The Secret Service”) — on track for a disappointing $5 million weekend.
Vaughn’s previous career-low came just two years ago with “Delivery Man” (also directed by Ken Scott), which opened to $7 million in the U.S. It follows a slew of other recent consecutive duds, including “The Dilemma” (2011), “The Watch” (2012) and “The Internship” (2013).
‘Unfinished Business’ is directed by Ken Scott and written by Steven Conrad. The film stars Vince Vaughn, Tom Wilkinson, Dave Franco, Sienna Miller, Nick Frost, andJames Marsden. ‘Unfinished Business’ centers around a hardworking St. Louis small-business owner (Vince Vaughn) and his two associates, one older and one younger (Tom Wilkinson and 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.
Rotten Tomatoes reported a rating of 14%, based on 74 reviews, with a rating average of 3.6/10. The site’s critical consensus reads, “Unfocused and unfunny, Unfinished Business lives down to its title with a slipshod screenplay and poorly directed performances that would have been better left unreleased.”
