"The Break-Up"
A bunch of us went to Galaxy Cinemas on Saturday to see “The Break-Up”. The movie was alright. I would suggest renting the movie instead of spending the $10 admission to see it at the theatre. I thought that most of the funnier parts were shown on the previews.Characters:
Gary (Vince Vaughn) is a selfish, overbearing loudmouth who works with his two brothers. He likes to spend his off hours hanging out with his buddies, watching sports and playing video games.
Brooke (Jennifer Aniston) is a more sensitive young woman who works as a dealer in an art gallery. She loves ballet and likes to have elegant dinners and spend time with her friends and family.
Plot:
After Brooke (Jennifer Aniston) calls it quits with her boyfriend Gary (Vince Vaughn) because she realizes that Gary has a lack of appreciation for her. However, they share a condo and both refuse to give it up. Taking the advice of their repsective friends and confidants (and a few total strangers), they both engage in mental warfare designed to force the other person to leave.
Notes: A complete surprise was to see Peter Billingsley (“Ralphie” from A Christmas Story) as Joey Lauren Adams’ husband. He also took part in producing the picture alongside Vince Vaughn.
