Break-Up, The

 

USA 2006, 105 minutes
Dir. Peyton Reed
Rating: [M]
Genres: Comedy / Romance

Feat. Vince Vaughn, Jennifer Aniston, Vincent D'Onofrio, Jon Favreau, Jason Bateman, Joey Lauren Adams, Judy Davis,  Ann-Margret, Cole Hauser

 

Aroview: Skewed relationship comedy has an aspirant young couple (Aniston, Vaughn) split up but continue to wrangle and feud over the condo they refuse to relinquish to the other and still cohabit.

Darker than predicted, this creates some cringingly convincing squabbles as the two try and best the other: Vaughn by taking up a permanent vacation on the couch and refusing to attend to any domestic chores; Aniston by humiliating him in front of friends and trying to arouse his jealousy. While underlaid with some convincing pathos, this anti-romcom is a little too sour compared to similar flimic stabs, such as WAR OF THE ROSES.
