Show all (5)George and Linda are an overextended, stressed out Manhattan couple. After George is downsized out of his job, they find themselves with only one option: to move in with George's awful brother in Atlanta. On the way there, George and Linda stumble upon Elysium, an idyllic community populated by colorful characters who embrace a different way of looking at things. Money? It can't buy happiness. Careers? Who needs them? Clothes? Only if you want them. Is Elysium the fresh start George and Linda need? Or will the change of perspective cause more problems than it solves?

Wanderlust would provide an intriguing double feature with the acclaimed indie drama Martha Marcy May Marlene.
Both are about people who search for their true selves in woodsy communes, get sucked into the brainwashing and insularity by a charismatic leader, and eventually struggle to escape.
One of these films contains poop jokes. Guess which one it is.
Yes, Wanderlust proudly wears its sketch-comedy origins on its sleeve (except for the commune's resident nudist, that is), and that means the gags are as hit-and-miss as you'd imagine. (Full review)
