    I love this film. Rob Reiner rocks. The story winds as a couple grows apart and somehow back together. Seems to show a true version of love and all that comes with it.

    Forgettable sentimental crap.

    The story of a typical marriage with all its ups and downs. Far too few take a break and give themselves a chance to work it out again as they do in this film. These days most couples fight it out until they are well past the point of no return.

    One of the worst excuses for a movie in the past twenty years. The acting is phoned in. The script is dreadful. The plot is boring. Do not waste your time with this stinker.

    Iskreno se nadam da necu ovako nesto i ja dozivit. Ove stvari se dogadaju skoro pa svima, vrlo tuzna radnja o krizi u braku. No kad je krenuo kraj, naravno da sam se rasplakala :D

Other people's problems can usually get to you after an hour and 45 minutes. But in Rob Reiner's heartstring-plinking comedy The Story of Us, you just might lose interest during the first 10. full review

Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle

There is a desperate phoniness about director Rob Reiner's The Story of Us. full review
