Top Critics' Reviews
Rotten: Writer and director Daniel Taplitz piles on the convolutions in an overripe comedy of sitcom stock characters and bad jokes.
Rotten: Packed with enough muddles and mixups to stock a French farce (or a middling UPN sitcom), Rules coasts amiably on without striking any real sparks.
Rotten: For the most part, Breakin' All the Rules feels like a Richard (Love Actually) Curtis film but without the inventiveness and wit.
Rotten: No movie this stupid should need a plot synopsis this complicated.
Customer Reviews
The Perfect Romantic Comedy
Thi is a great movie, its funny as hell and its something different than your average romantic comedy.
Breakin' All the Rules
This was a great romantic comedy. Jamie Foxx is at the top of his game and Gabrielle Union is a stone cold fox. Definately worth a rent, probably worth the buy.
Breakin' All the Rules
Great romantic comedy.
