This comedy part just bothers me. Vince Vaughn is simply an annoying actor and he plays the same character in every comedy. A rough idiot who somehow mysteriously becomes better. Jennifer Aniston doesn't fit here either, but I simply appreciate that the film doesn't unnecessarily strive for a happy ending. (17.03.2015)

Why is it so hard to accept that this is neither a cheerful comedy nor a nerve-wracking drama? In life, we are not always depressed after a breakup, sometimes we are able to look back on the past with sarcasm and detachment. And it is precisely this kind of irony with a hint of sincerity that suits me for romantic films. Vince Vaughn plays exactly the kind of guy I would like to have as a friend, and in his initial roughness, he is irresistible. Furthermore, I understand the reason for the key argument ("I want you to want to help me") from both sides. On the other hand, I don't understand why Gary didn't apologize right away, because that would have been my first reaction. (09.06.2007)

A weak, bland romance. The film touches the comedy genre only slightly, but my expectations were the opposite and I was hoping for some kind of a quirky comedy full of bizarre situations and humour, but unfortunately none of that is fulfilled here and the film goes 100 minutes purely on the plane of drama and romance. A couple who once got along well, within no time at all, break up and start playing pranks on each other just to piss each other off and make the other jealous and want them back. An anremarkable idea with a clearly laid down and predictable plot and ending, and drastically lacking in humour... (22.10.2023)

I can’t figure out why I originally gave this such a high rating. The film’s plus is definitely its stellar cast. The downside is the story which seemed interesting at first, but started dragging on after a while. I got pretty bored in the last quarter. Fortunately, the filmmakers managed to avoid a typical American ending. (27.12.2017)

Well, that was excellent. A beautiful Jennifer Aniston and a very funny Vince Vaughn. It may be a rip-off of The War of the Roses, but what the hell, I never get tired of these partner troubles in movies and here I found myself rolling on the floor laughing countless times. Certain situations are set up and contrived perfectly and it’s missing just a little bit to get a golden rating. 80% (07.03.2018)
