The Ex had it moments. It was a cute film, I will give it that. This film could have been magnificent, with it's cast. But, it fell short of that into the luke warm territory.
I am a fan of Zach Braff, I really like Scrubs. So, I guess I was expecting a little more from him...( read more)
Nothing exceptional, except maybe that it may be the only movie I like Amanda Peet in...
Occasional funny parts, but to be truthful, most moments of laughter were included in the trailer and that had made it look a much funnier film than it actually was. There were some really odd parts and it most definitely had it?s fair share of cringeworthy parts too. Come on Z...( read more)
Fun little comedy with some genuine laughs and a very watchable cast. Sadly Braff has done much better work and is forced to resort to pratfalls a little too often. The nicest surprise here was to see Charles Grodin back on screen. Very user friendly and worthwhile, if only to se...( read more)

It's a pretty twisted concept, bordering on offensive. But mostly it's just not funny. full review
Nothing is more of a downer than a movie that trots out a great cast and stumbles; that tries to be cutesy and fails. full review
After The Last Kiss and Garden State, not to mention Scrubs (second only to Law and Order when it comes to TV ubiquity), Braff's shtick, his bug-eyed, hangdog, goofy-grin thing, is getting tired. full review
It's conventional, and given the talent involved it could be better. But it isn't half bad, which makes it twice as good as some recent comedy smashes. full review
Zach Braff is just about the world's most insufferable comedic actor, and The Ex does nothing to diminish that reputation. full review
