I must say it was a good movie. The characters are so relatable. We have probably been in the same situations and said the same things, or at least contemplated some of the things that happened in the film.
The basic premise of the film is that a couple who bought a house together, have a big fight one fine day, call it quits, and are forced to live under the same roof until the house is sold off. What follows are the usual hijinks as they both try to outdo one another in the hope that the other party caves in and apologises. Of course the much needed apology never comes and both parties are left to pick up the pieces. The supporting cast are brilliant too. They add all sorts of interesting situations and perspectives to the problems the couple face. I guess you can say the cast say all the things the audience is thinking, which is what makes it so enjoyable.
One of those films that leaves a lump in your throat and gives you food for thought. The ending is so tragic. I guess you can call it the anti-date film.
In many ways this movie made me re-think lots of the little things that goes on between me and Agnes. And how much she means to me. We could easily end up like the protagonists in the film. Too many times we try to change the other person to our point of view, and not contemplate how we can change the way we can do things for the benefit of the other person.
