The Break Up

This is puzzling. Why would two actors as likeable and charming as Vince Vaughn and Jennifer Aniston choose to play two such unlikeable and charmless characters as these? To be fair Aniston’s character is not so much unlikeable, as dull and dim witted. I found it entirely unbelievable that these two characters would ever get together in the first place and from twenty minuted into the movie I was rooting for them to break it off and move far away from each other as quickly as possible. There is little to laugh at here. Imagine two lesser known actors in the roles and you quickly realise that it is only star power that lifted this turkey off the cutting room floor. Dire. Not even worth a mention as a chick flick. Just as the Aniston character deserves a better boyfriend, chicks deserve better movies than this.
