Marriage, in the film, is the necessary evil we all must figure out how to endure in order to be happy or, at least, feel normal.

I'm right down the middle on this one. It's not great, but it's not terrible either.

Imagine the world's longest, lamest and smuttiest episode of the redoubtable TV classic "Love, American Style" and you have only begun to conceptualize the mind and genital-numbing horror that is "Swinging with the Finkels."

I'm shocked that this movie, which opens next week, even got a theatrical release and didn't go straight to DVD. Even more amazing is that it got made in the first place.

An occasionally loathsome sitcom starring two miscast leads doing their chipper best to make this malarkey profound.

If you make it to the so-called happy ending, think aloud if Swinging with the Finkels would have lived up to its name better if the titular couple ended their relationship on the business side of a noose.

A contempo contribution to the august British tradition of lame, unfunny sex comedies.

Likeable leads can't save this dreary sex comedy.

[E]xcruciatingly wrongheaded and outdated... [T]reats women like mysterious creatures from the depths of the Victorian age and marriage like an extended standup routine from the 1970s...

a bit crude for its own good

The film features one-dimensional, married characters who lack distinctive personalities, and fails to include a backstory that proves they ever had any chemistry together.

It helps if you don't look directly at it.
