Rob Reiner directs Michelle Pfeiffer, Bruce Willis and Rita Wilson in this romantic comedy following a once in love’s couple’s separation.

Handsome, moves at a clip. Only it isn’t particularly romantic. And the stars don’t have any noticeable chemistry. Separately they earn their keep, look lovely. There just isn’t a lot of joy here. The Break-Up covers this ground with more abrasive zing, Forget Paris is the better When Harry Met Sally… rehash. Did Bruce have a running bet with Sam Jackson in the late Nineties that if one had to wear a toupee then it had to be even more ridiculous than the last?
