Synopsis

Pushed to the breaking-up point after their latest 'why can't you do this one little thing for me?' argument, Brooke calls it quits with her boyfriend Gary. What follows is a hilarious series of remedies, war tactics, overtures and undermining tricks – all encouraged by the former couple's friends and confidantes …and the occasional total stranger! When neither ex is willing to move out of their shared apartment, the only solution is to continue living as hostile roommates until one of them reaches breaking point.

CheerupSilver Very Cool!!!
Konterr Brilliant and touching
Maidexpl Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast
Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Calin Florea I only have 3 "steps" in rating a movie. 3 stars - loved it, kept me awake, had fun, ate a lot of popcorn 2 stars - barely kept me awake and it was boring for me 1 star - the last transformers the last knight :))I give 3 stars to this one, great story, realistically illustrated, looks great, sounds great, fantastic acting, maybe the soundtrack could've been better. Overall great movie to watch at night, makes you think when you go to sleep :). Girlfriend/wife friendly, tho it might bring up some unsaid stuff so be aware :)
HotToastyRag Real-life (at the time) couple Jennifer Aniston and Vince Vaughn starred in a movie called The Break-Up. Did neither one of them think that was a bad idea? In the movie, they play a couple who break up but still cohabitate in the same apartment. There's a few funny jokes, and it's not the worst romantic comedy in the world, but it's not the best, either. Aniston isn't really given much to do, and Vaughn is given his usual free reign on his microphone. If he doesn't usually annoy you, and you like Aniston when she coasts through a romantic comedy, you'll make it through this one.As usual, I'm not giving any spoilers, but I really like one of the endings. Included in the DVD is an alternate ending, because the studio found the original ending didn't test well. I won't tell you which one I liked, but you can rest assured there's an option in case you're not happy with the end.
gwnightscream Vince Vaughn and Jennifer Aniston star in this 2006 romantic comedy-drama. This takes place in Chicago, Illinois where we meet Gary (Vaughn), a tour guide and his girlfriend, Brooke (Aniston), an art dealer. Soon, things drastically change for them when Gary doesn't step up in their relationship. They both drift apart, but decide to stay in their condo where things get tense. They seek advice from friends and relatives, but eventually they both realize they have to change. Joey Lauren Adams, Judy Davis, Ann-Margret, Justin Long, Vincent D'Onofrio and Cole Hauser appear and Vaughn's frequent collaborators, Jason Bateman, Peter Billingsley, John Michael Higgins and John Favreau also appear. This isn't bad, it has some humorous and dramatic moments and Vaughn & Aniston are good together. I recommend this.
p-baenziger This is a romantic comedy with a twist - it's not funny, or romantic. Also, it requires suspension of disbelief to watch.If you expect to watch a comedy, the rating is a clear 1 out of 10. If you already know that it isn't a comedy, many issues remain. It's hard to associate with any of the main characters - the characters don't have depth, it's hard to like them, or hate them, or feel anything about them other than boredom or confusion. There are no feel-good moments. No suspension other than the everlasting question - when does the real movie start? And while we already know that it isn't a comedy, there are less humorous scenes than in most horror movies.This is only a review of the first half of the movie, I haven't seen the second half, nor do I intend to ever watch it.
