The movie is fine, but...

This movie is airing on my payTV in these weeks and I never mind watching it, because it's quite relaxing: no ups, no downs, no misunderstanding, nothing really annoying or really fun or really moving... it just looks like window shortly open on these people's life, in a weekend where they get all together. Maybe a weekend that everyone of us ("normal people") can have.

Indeed there are two "ups" and two "downs":
- the arrow roulette is fun!
- Salma Hayek is... whoa!

two things are instead disturbing me:
-the dog with no vocal cords :(
-FORTY MILLION DOLLARS TO MAKE THIS MOVIE? FOR WHAT!? is it all in CGI?

That's a good point. They didn't try to crowbar in any cliche plot lines, like a wife leaving the husband and him having to "win her back", no misunderstandings or bad guys. Just all good fun.
