The story isn’t great and neither romantic nor funny. Sorry Vince Vaughn, I know you are humorous and sincere, but you look like a slob beside your new girlfriend Jennifer Aniston. Even though the two of you felt in love, we couldn't feel the chemistry.
However, this is one movie I can most identify with. People in relationships will.
After two years falling in love, the two break up over 3 lemons and some computer games. It really wasn’t about the failure to wash dishes or the lemons or the games. Ask yourself how many times have you taken your other half for granted?
Even the two were still in love, they found words to spite each other. They tried ways and means to make the other party jealous, hoping to get back their dignity and love at the same time. Is this what you would do?
I really liked the ending. As for the final shot when you see the two walking, it was as real as it could get. Probably what I would do and feel. It’s such a simple word, yet people fail to see it…
"Treasure".
