Brief Review

After a couple breaks up, neither wants to move out of their apartment, so they try to force the other to move out. I’m not really sure what this movie was supposed to be. I thought I was watching a romantic comedy, but it was the opposite. It wasn’t romantic because it was about their break-up and it was more sad than funny. This movie is like watching a real life break-up and the pain that comes along with it. So if you are looking to relive a breakup, this is a good way to do it. Sure there are some funny scenes and moments, but overall this is a fairly depressing movie. I totally had the wrong expectations for it and by the end I really thought this movie was just sad. I didn’t really enjoy it at all. Maybe with the right expectations (or someone who enjoys misery) it would be better, but I won’t be watching it again.
