This is one movie where the PQ and SQ (both very good) were in the back ground for me as the story line took center stage an excellent script, swift and intelligent comedic diologue. Also the way Brad and Angelina played off of each other. Masterful job by each actor. A fast paced, action/comedy and highly entertaining movie all around.

A Shame that amazon didn't include Smith, Simpsons and DH 4.0 on their BOGO sale.

This was quite possibly the worst movie I have ever seen. I'm glad I only rented it and I will never spend another penny on it....

+1 , it's still good to hear that the PQ/AQ is great though (for the folks that do like the movie). It will certainly draw more attention towards Blu-ray.

Apart from the complete implausibility of the premise and the total lack of any attempt to portray the period of time between the marriage and the rest of the movie and how people could be married this long and know so little about each other and how the marriage deteriorated. . . .

AQ and PQ are top.
The story is so so but very entertaining. Brad Pitt's performance is really great

I watched this last night.I thought the picture and sound was both great.And I thought it was good movie as well. The first 10 minutes I thought was a bit boring.But then it got good. It's a keeper for me.

Brad Pitt is a pretty boy, and that's it. He's about as entertaining to watch as Nicolas Cage. 1-dimensional as they come.

You realize that it's not intended to be plausible right? It's intended to be a comedic play on how couples sometimes drift apart and don't really understand eachother... but to the extreme. It's an excuse to blow things up, and if you're not into that, then you won't enjoy it.

How can it be funny when it is so far removed from anything resembling reality in terms of actual marriages? The blowing things up was fine; I enjoy that as much as anybody else, but nobody explained to me that I was going to be watching something so utterly far-fetched.

A "comedic play on how couples sometimes drift apart and don't really understand each other" would need to be based on people who have actually lived with each other and, apart from their off-screen relationship, these people obviously haven't done that.

I still think you are missing the point entirely.... it's satire... They are trying to make fun of a lot of things in the movie. There is no need for the marriage to be realistic or played by people in a real relationship.

It's one of my favorite comedies so it was great to see that the PQ/AQ were excellent.

It was so obvious they were flirting with each other throughout the whole movie. I love the movie and I hope their relationship last. They look good together. I'll get this movie this weekend. Fox always does a good job with their movies.

I love the movie, but mabey I need to watch it again because I don't see the PQ being as amazing as some of you make it out to be... Yes the day/lighted scenes look fantastic, but some of the night scenes did not look impressive at all...
