I’m seriously glad my girlfriend and I didn’t wind up seeing this in theaters. While it’s not the worst movie I’ve ever seen, it turned out to be a lot worse than I ever could have imagined it to be for a number of reasons.
First off, I don’t know why, but every single person in this film overacts. Badly. I mean, what the hell? Uma Thurman’s a great actress, and Luke Wilson (on occasion), but this film made them both seem like complete amateurs. I know they’re better than this. I think the only character that seemed fitting was Rainn Wilson’s.
Also, I have to agree with paperstars: (1) the film had a ton of potential to be good; and (2) there were way too many low-brow jokes that just weren’t funny at all. Really, the idea is an interesting one that you just don’t see in superhero movies these days, but Ex-Girlfriend just turns everything into one big, unfunny joke.
If you can, avoid this. If you’re interested, try finding a way to see it without actually paying any money for it, because you’re going to kick yourself otherwise.
Only because I really love Uma Thurman. It’s pretty terrible otherwise.
cries this was the most painful movie to watch EVER. The plotline and overall feeling was one of this cheesy children’s movie, but it was full of so many sleazy sex references, jokes, and content that the end result was absolutely absurd. There was ONE hilarious moment in the film which didn’t actually happen in the film — in the preview Wilson breaks up with Thurman and she rockets through the ceiling, he pauses and whispers “Oh noooo” — I laughed for a really long time at that but unfortunately it was a manufactured little scene from a bigger scene in the movie which was unfunny and the line wasn’t even in there (at least, I waited for it and I didn’t hear it, I could be mistaken I suppose).
That’s not my biggest problem with the movie, but I thought it was disappointing that the reason I wanted to see the movie wasn’t even in it at all.
The characters had potential and I think it could have been a much better movie if it weren’t for the low-brow slap stick and sex. I’m not against sexual jokes or anything, but there were SO MANY and most of them were NOTFUNNY. They should have just made it a more family oriented film (again, the tone was SO Disney channel cheesy that I’m not sure why they didn’t go all the way in the first place) and maybe I would have actually liked it.
