Reunited and It's Not Too Good
2nd time....not the charm. And I don't mean sequels although I might add some. But I mostly mean when actors from a successful movie reunite. For something not as good.

- DirectorJon AvnetStarsRobert De NiroAl PacinoCarla GuginoTwo veteran New York City detectives work on a case of serial executions of criminals who escaped justice.Pacino and Deniro reunited again since Heat. In a lazy thriller that's of course nowhere near as good as the Godfather 2. Heat is also far superior.
- DirectorF. Gary GrayStarsJohn TravoltaUma ThurmanDwayne JohnsonDisenchanted with the movie industry, Chili Palmer tries the music industry, meeting and romancing a widow of a music executive on the way.Travolta and Thurman together again. Their dance scene is forgettable this time though. Just watch Pulp Fiction again.
- DirectorRobert YoungFred SchepisiStarsJohn CleeseJamie Lee CurtisKevin KlineZookeepers struggle to deal with the policies of changing directors.The cast from A Fish Called Wanda is back in a far less memorable or funny movie.
- DirectorSusanne BierStarsBradley CooperJennifer LawrenceRhys IfansIn Depression-era North Carolina, the future of George Pemberton's timber empire becomes complicated when he marries Serena.In this case third time not the charm. They look lost without David O. Russell directing it.
- DirectorJustin ZackhamStarsRobert De NiroDiane KeatonKatherine HeiglA long-divorced couple fakes being married as their family unites for a wedding.Robert Deniro and Robin Williams reunited after Awakenings. Haven't seen it but I heard it's bad. Williams deserved better in his last year's.
- DirectorFrank CoraciStarsAdam SandlerDrew BarrymoreWendi McLendon-CoveyAfter a bad blind date, a man and woman find themselves stuck together at a resort for families, where their attraction grows as their respective kids benefit from the burgeoning relationship.They had 2 decent films together. This one is just lazy and predictable. Not Sandler's worst though.
- DirectorShawn LevyStarsVince VaughnOwen WilsonRose ByrneTwo salesmen whose careers have been torpedoed by the digital age find their way into a coveted internship at Google, where they must compete with a group of young, tech-savvy geniuses for a shot at employment.It was just okay but you probably will want to watch Wedding Crashers again afterwards. Or just shut this off during it to watch Wedding Crashers.
- DirectorPeter BillingsleyStarsVince VaughnMalin AkermanJon FavreauA comedy centered around four couples who settle into a tropical-island resort for a vacation. While one of the couples is there to work on the marriage, the others fail to realize that participation in the resort's therapy sessions is not optional.Vaughn reunited with Jon Favereu since Swingers, Made and a few others. They were also together again in probably worse than this... Four Christmases. But they have less screen time together again in that than this.
Couples Retreet is probably Vaughn's worst with Jason Bateman as well. - DirectorSteven SoderberghStarsGeorge ClooneyBrad PittMatt DamonDanny Ocean rounds up the boys for a third heist after casino owner Willy Bank double-crosses one of the original eleven, Reuben Tishkoff.Al Pacino and Ellen Barken reunited after Sea of Love. All I remember is Clooney and Pitt getting teary watching Oprah.
- DirectorNora EphronStarsTom HanksMeg RyanGreg KinnearBook superstore magnate Joe Fox and independent book shop owner Kathleen Kelly fall in love in the anonymity of the Internet, both blissfully unaware that he's trying to put her out of business.Decent but you might want to watch Sleepless in Seatle or even Joe Versus the Vocano instead.
- DirectorDavid Gordon GreenStarsDanny McBrideNatalie PortmanJames FrancoWhen Prince Fabious's bride is kidnapped, he goes on a quest to rescue her... accompanied by his lazy useless brother Thadeous.Danny McBribe reunited with James Franco after Pineapple Express. And it's pretty unfunny.
- DirectorChristopher CainStarsJoe PesciDanny GloverRosanna ArquetteTwo lifelong fishing buddies must overcome a series of obstacles to enjoy their ultimate fishing trip.Just watch Lethal Weapon 2 again instead.
- DirectorHoward DeutchStarsJack LemmonWalter MatthauRichard RiehleOscar and Felix take a road trip to their son and daughter's wedding.Lemon and Mattheau were a better combination in just about any other movie; especially the original Odd Couple. Grumpy Old Men 1-2 and Out to Sea are also better.
- DirectorGarry MarshallStarsJulia RobertsRichard GereJoan CusackA reporter is assigned to write a story about a woman who has left a string of fiancés at the altar.
- DirectorIvan ReitmanStarsArnold SchwarzeneggerDanny DeVitoEmma ThompsonAs part of a fertility research project, a male scientist agrees to carry a pregnancy in his own body.It was okay but you'll probably enjoy Arnold and Devito as Twins more. Than seeing Arnold pregnant.
- DirectorJohn McTiernanStarsJohn TravoltaSamuel L. JacksonConnie NielsenA D.E.A. Agent investigates the disappearance of a legendary Army Ranger Drill Sergeant and several of his cadets during a training exercise gone severely awry.
- DirectorJoel SchumacherStarsDemi MooreRob LoweAndrew McCarthyA group of friends, just out of college, struggle with adulthood.Three stars from the Breakfast Club reunite to struggle with adulthood. In a far less memorable movie.
- DirectorJames L. BrooksStarsReese WitherspoonPaul RuddOwen WilsonAfter being cut from the U.S.A. softball team and feeling a bit past her prime, Lisa finds herself evaluating her life and in the middle of a love triangle, as a corporate guy in crisis competes with her current, baseball-playing beau.Overnight Delivery itself wasn't spectacular yet it was a better movie starring Paul Rudd and Reese Witherspoon. Plus who wants to see Jack Nicholson as a whiny guy in one of his last roles before his retirement ?
- DirectorBobby FarrellyPeter FarrellyStarsJim CarreyJeff DanielsRob Riggle20 years since their first adventure, Lloyd and Harry go on a road trip to find Harry's newly discovered daughter, who was given up for adoption.
