The Break-Up

After seeing previews for this a long time ago, I really wanted to see it based on the bowling scene. This movie looked hilarious. As the time came closer and closer for it to come out, I also found out they had to re-shoot a bunch of footage to change the ending. This made me start to wonder a bit, but I think they probably made that decision for the best. Test audiences can be a good thing. Two things I must point out is that I spotted Peter Billingsley (Ralphie Parker from A Christmas Story) and Keir O'Donnell (Todd Cleary from Wedding Crashers). I was proud of myself for that. There's some other recognizable faces like Vincent D'Onofrio, Cole Hauser, Jon Favreau, Jason Bateman (Arrested Development), Joey Lauren Adams and of course Jennifer Aniston and Vince Vaughn. Parts of the movie seemed very weird to me because when I think of Vince Vaughn, I think of Swingers and it's sometimes hard for me to think of him in a serious role. Liz reminded me that I still haven't seen him in some serious roles. I think I need to get on that. So even though some of the movie seemed a bit cheesy to me, I still think it was full of hilariously funny parts. We even heard Vince almost repeat a line from Wedding Crashers. If you're into Vince Vaughn and Jon Favreau humor, you'll probably want to watch this one.
