Sorry, this movie sucks

Good concept, poorly executed.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

This movie really did surprise me. I was actually shocked of the low ratings. This movie may not have a big twist or conflict. It also doesn't have complicated storyline. This movie actually is pretty simple. It tells a story of a couple who is on a though times of their relationship. How that problem could take them somewhere they never thought before. And how by overcoming it, they found something else inside them that is actually the answer of all their problems. You will see a lot of yelling scenes, but also heartbreaking and heartfelt moments. And the best part is that you could totally relate to these characters, or to the story. You will realize that this is actually very realistic, these moments in the movie could actually happen in real lives. Such a beautiful balance.I must say that i have no doubt on vince and jen's acting. Clever comedians who are also able to nail the serious moments too. You will laugh on their jokes, you will smile when the romantic scene comes, and you will cry when the sad moment comes (seriously i cried so much on the last 30mins). Very well acted.This may not be the best romcom movie of all time, but the break-up sure is worth to watch. Especially if you want to see one of the most realistic story of romcoms.

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.

"The Break up" is a film that incorporates a real life situation into a film that is relatable and well rounded. This film produces a new look at relationships and the hardships that are bound to come between two people. The director interestingly takes a new, and innovative approach on this film by not making it a happy ending story, but in fact making it a sad ending where neither person in the couple regains what they truly want--each other. The director continuously reinforces the idea that couples aren't always happy and go through trials just like everyone else. By doing this, it makes the film a more relatable thing to watch for an older audience. Although this film is overall an enjoyable film to watch, I would not consider it classic or a very popular film. Though in it's time it may have been very popular amongst adults and teenagers, it's overall value has decreased with time. Many think this is due to the fact that the film is too generic with no real 'closure' at the end of the film. Others speculate that it's just another relationship movie. I believe this film decreased in popularity due to both of these reasons. It attracts many of the older audience to this film, but once you've seen it, you've seen it and there's not much more to gain. Overall, I believe this film holds many morals and messages within it. All relationships have problems at one point or another and I believe this film explores those ideas fairly well. It teaches us that if you love someone, you sacrifice what you want to make the other person happy. It's also equally important that both partners are emotionally satisfied in the relationship in order for it to work out in the end for both parties. The director installations that in his film by getting a deeper look of the phases couples go through after a break up, which made the film stronger in the long run.The director in this film did a good job of showing the internal conflict of both the people in the relationship and how that affected the well being of the external conflict. By showing both sides of this relationship and how both people thought out their next move, it brought to light many of the questions people have in their own relationship. Brooke's internal conflict was feeling unappreciated in the relationship, and Gary's internal conflict was being confused and wanting freedom. Both of these problems contributed to the bridged external conflict, the break up and the aftermath it left on their friends and family. The director brought to light these two characters equally into the plot, which strengthened the audience's connection to both characters. This film explores relationships and the struggles one goes through very well. I would recommend this movie and give it a 7 on the wow scale.

I like to give credit where credit is due, the acting in this film is actually decent, it just feels like it's in the wrong genre, This film is meant to be a Rom-Com, and even by Rom-Com standards, this film isn't good, the film is far,far to serious and depressing, there are really only TWO jokes in this entire film... and they both fall flat and just come off awkward.If this film was under the genre of a romantic drama I would probably rate the film a 5/10 but as it is a failed comedy it has to loose marks in my opinionSummary: Pros -The acting is not too badCons -For a comedy the film is way too serious and uncomfortable - The only 2 jokes in the entire film are easy, cheap jokes that some how still feel awkward and out of context
