This was truly one of the very worst movies I ever saw. Though it started on a promising note, after five minutes I found myself guzzling an extra-large coke, just so I would have the excuse of going to the... Full review
Painful to Watch

Nelson Ricardo - imdb.com
I was expecting a romantic comedy. Although there were some comedic elements, The Break Up was too shrill and combative to qualify as a romantic comedy. Several scenes were uncomfortable to watch. Jennifer Anniston lacked her usual spark. Vince Vaughn's... Full review
The Break-Up is a highly watchable drama that contains elements of cleaver comedy. Vince Vaughn and Jennifer Anniston put in solid performances in a film that feels strikingly real at times.The Break-up does not play out as a light-hearted comedy... Full review

Amateur Movie Reviews
The premise of The Break-Up is nothing original. But after that, the film became rather dark and depressing. Overall, I have to say I was disappointed in The Break-Up and can't recommend it to you. Vaughn's character Gary frustrated me just as much. ... Full Review

Tiscali UK
For Vaughn, whose original idea inspired the film, and who also acts as producer, The Break-Up shows that in addition to his usual cocky persona, he has a vulnerable side. In the tender scenes, the chemistry between Vaughn and Aniston, which resulted in their off screen romance, is evident and lends the film the necessary romantic tension to pull off its tricky balancing act. ...

The Break-Up" has clearly been marketed as a comedy, and it certainly has funny parts, but there's more earnest heartache than frat night jokes. I would never seek this kind of movie out - it isn't my thing - but it clearly wants to please both Aniston's female fans and Vaughn's male frat boys by mixing up the comedy and drama and backing away when it gets too close to chick flick country. ... Full Review

Film Freak Central
The Break-Up is interesting solely because it's one of the starker examples of how neutered our culture has become. The Break-Up's best moments are the aforementioned bacchanal, another in which Lupus (Cole Hauser), Gary's appropriately lupine brother, tries to pick up two women by describing a bizarre bondage/torture scenario, and a bit where best friend Johnny (Jon Favreau) can't be talked out of killing an innocent man out of macho kinship to Gary. ...
