Marriage Retreat 2011

     A group of three couples learn about a marriage retreat in the mountains sponsored by their church.  They all believe their marriages could use help.  Dr. Sullivan and his wife Katrina challenge them to confront their own problems to heal their marriages.  All three of the couples don’t know if this retreat is going to help them at all or are they headed for divorces?  

     Bobby and Melody are arguing over Bobby’s constant gambling.  Melody is afraid one day they will be flat broke.  James and Donna argue over the acting career of James.  Donna believes he only thinks about himself.  Mark and Claire argue over Claire wanting a child.  Mark had an abusive father and he’s afraid he doesn’t know how to be a father.  At times everyone is arguing at once?  I didn’t know how this was going to turn out?  3* (This movie is OK)
