I had high hopes for this film and made my friend watch it. His comment at the end was that he was glad he didn't spend any money on it. I must agree. While I enjoy all the actors involved,... Read more at imdb.com
If I were to look at it, I would say The Ex aka Fast Track forms a loose trilogy of sorts with regards to growing up, and somewhat like a natural progression in the different stages of life that Zach... Read more at imdb.com
I think the main actors in this flick (Zach Braff, Amanda Peet, and the totally wasted Jason Bateman) were the only thing that was even somewhat decent about this terrible attempt of comedy. I have seen better episodes of "Arrested... Read more at imdb.com
I Hate Chip Sanders

Jason Bateman shined in this average comedy featuring Zach Braff and Amanda Peet. Despite being in a wheelchair for the entire movie, Jason Bateman does a fantastic job making the audience despise his character Chip Sanders. Tom Reilly (Braff) moves... Read more at imdb.com
A fairly amusing show where Braff's character deals with a co-worker in a new job that had had a thing with his wife in high school. This comedy doesn't bring anything new to the genre, but is a fair watch... Read more at imdb.com
Mediocre comedy

Zach Braff ("Scrubs"), Amanda Peet ("Studio 60..") and Jason Bateman ("Arrested Development") help this little film just over the "average" bar. Even though their characters are pretty shallow, they put in a good performance and partly succeed in making you... Read more at imdb.com

Just like most people who've written reviews for this film, I too was excited to hear about a film staring two great comedians like Braff and Bateman. How could you go wrong with these two? However, with two inexperienced writers... Read more at imdb.com
Writers David Guion and Michael Handelman and director Jesse Peretz must have called in a lot of favors when they made "The Ex," for how else to account for the presence of Zach Braff, Amanda Peet, Jason Bateman, Charles Grodin,... Read more at imdb.com
Being a fan of my generation's brilliant TV comedians: Zach Braff of Scrubs and Jason Bateman of Arrested Development. I saw the movie at a special screening and I wasn't disappointed. The lead of the movie is actually Braff who... Read more at imdb.com
what to say, well the film was average, nothing brilliant but it did manage to hold your attention until the end.Both leads were fine, again not brilliant but if anyone steals the show i would say that had to be... Read more at imdb.com

St. Louis Post-Dispatch
The new title is a better indication of what works in this muddled comedy: co-star Jason Bateman as Braff's romantic rival. The Ex" has a strong cast and some nasty wit but, when push comes to shove, it doesn't stand up. ... Full Review

Cinematical
According to Braff, the studio has always hated the title Fast Track because it does little or nothing to describe the actual film. Perhaps even more interesting, though, is that the film is undergoing a last minute title change. ... Full Review

Cinematical
You may have heard of this movie under its original title ( Fast Track ) or knew a little something about its three or four previous release dates, but it's now limping into theaters with no fanfare whatsoever Aspiring filmmakers should check it out as a lesson plan from Bizarro World: Make a movie that's the exact opposite of The Ex and it could be the funniest film ever made. ... Full Review

Qwipster's Movie Reviews
Your enjoyment of the film will greatly depend on how much you enjoy the typical comedies done by Stiller, and whether or not you think Braff does a better job at playing the hapless, misunderstood, immature ignoramus who means well, but just can't seem to keep from getting in trouble. ...

Monsters and Critics
Braff abandons the shambly doofus character he plays so well in television's Scrubs to terrorize all who love him. Peet, a journeyman actor and practiced farceur appears increasingly lost as the film goes on. ... Full Review

There's something about There's Something About Mary that makes people want to try to recapture the comedy's genie-in-a-bottle even 10 years later. This one, by one-time indie star Jesse Peretz is about a jobless soon-to-be dad (Zach Braff) trying to... ... Full Article
