If only "Wanderlust" had more wandering and more lust it could be a halfway decent comedy.
Alas, you won't find much of either in this tepid, trying-too-hard flick. In fact, the only entertaining scenes take place at the beginning and end of the movie when our protagonists are in New York City.
Part One: Linda and George (Jennifer Aniston and Paul Rudd) are a youngish couple trying and failing to make it in the big city. (Pretty funny.)
Part Two: Our somewhat likable duo try to make a go of it at George's brothers place in one of those soulless McMansion communities. (Mildly funny.)
Part Three: Our increasingly annoying couple move into a 1960s-style commune where everyone is desperately seeking laughs. (The opposite of funny.)
Part Four: Let's just say it's almost worth waiting around for the end. But not quite.
