Synopsis
A
once-loving Chicago couple whose happily-ever-after quickly turned into
a never-again finds their crumbling romance complicated when both
parties refuse to move out of the pair's recently purchased condo. The
Break-Up is a romantic comedy that starts where all the others end. The
future once looked promising for thirtysomething couple Brooke
(Jennifer Aniston) and Gary (Vince Vaughn), but lately it seems like a
series of increasingly petty and intolerable squabbles have snuffed any
semblance of romance in their relationship.
Their confrontation endlessly fueled by mean-spirited suggestions of
revenge tactics from friends and family and their stubborn refusal to
budge resulting in an excruciating stalemate, Brooke and Gary
ultimately decide to spitefully stick it out as hostile roommates until
the weaker party eventually admits defeat. As the competition to drive
one another out grows increasingly intense and outrageous, however,
Brooke eventually comes to the realization that she's not fighting for
possession of the condominium as much as she is fighting to salvage her
relationship with the man she once viewed as the love of her life.
