Movie Review: The Ex

When Scrubs is good it is really good. And Arrested Development is probably the best written show in the history of sit-coms. So, the possibilities when Zach Braff and Jason Bateman are in the same movie, The Ex, should be awesome. And, there are some funny moments. Like… when making fun of the handicapped. But they are far between, sadly. Braff pretty much plays Dorian, the characters are really the same. Bateman is good as the bad guy, Amanda Peet is, for once, not playing the stuck-up bitch (check her previous parts, she always plays the bitch). But the movie stays far to close to the formula for its own good. Even the “I love you so much” speech in the end is there. Not that the movie is bad, far from it, but the best part is the bloopers in the end.
Verdict: See.
