Review of The Ex (2006) by John-Daniel ~ — 24 Feb 2010
If your a fan of Braff's character in Scrubs you'll like him in The Ex as he plays the same exact character. The setup and the first thirty minutes are fairly funny but as the film continues on it starts to lose itself.
Bateman is solid as a jerk of an ex while Peet, Logue and Grodin do okay during there screen time. Mia Farrow, Amy Poehler, Perry Reeves and Amy Adams are absolutely wasted during this film, none really serving a purpose.
Overall, The Ex starts off well but the third act isn't very funny or polished and the plot turns sloppy. I'd take a pass on The Ex unless your an extreme Braff fan and enjoy his humor.
