The Story of Us... Lots of Us

bymunkwunk Dec 30, 2010
16 Helpfuls 17 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Great cast, excellent direction, wonderful music, leaves you thinking
Cons Gutter humor can be distracting, even though it presents its own message
Recommended it? Yes

I have been on a bit of a Bruce Willis kick lately, and have recently started in on some of his non-action movies.  There aren't many of them, but "The Story of Us" proves that Willis can do more than just the drunken ex-cop gig, and he does it well.

In "The Story of Us" we see Ben... Read full review »

I enjoyed watching this movie but I couldn't watch it unless I was prepared to be sad. I couldn't watch it without feeling like crying. It is a really good movie though. Read full review »

Pros Entertaining, Enjoyable, Engaging

I work in the counseling field and I highly recommend this movie to married people. It shows you what is real and normal in a marriage and honestly is worth a few sessions of couples counseling. Every time I struggle in my own marriage I watch this and feel better.  Read full review »

Pros Very realistic qualities, puts marriage in perspective.
Cons Movie can be slow at times.
Recommended it? Yes

If you are looking for a movie that has lots of action, or belly busting humor, you won't want to see this movie. However, if you are interested in watching a realistic film about marriage you might want to check this out.

The movie is about a married couple (Bruce Willis and Michele... Read full review »

Pros Realistic and theraputic for the married.
Cons It takes them so long to realize how it should end.
Recommended it? Yes

I do not often say, "this sounds like just like me," when watching the movies, but I found myself thinking that at several parts during this film. My husband found a "chick flick" that also relates his point of view well on the screen. We decided after watching this, this is not a "chick flick" or... Read full review »

I have to say I was quite surprised when I seen so many low ratings on the Story of Us, but it is one of my favorite movies. Let me begin by saying last year I came into many marriage troubles and this movie was recommended to my husband and I by our marriage counselor. It was a real eye opener... Read full review »

Pros The script has some astounding dialogue; Willis is blessedly smirk-free
Cons Michelle Pfeiffer sharpens her fingernails on the chalkboard

Rob Reiner?s jangle-jingle ode to modern marriage, The Story of Us, begins and ends with two great monologues on what it means to be a wedded couple in the kind of nation where, in Reno, Nevada, you can get married by an Elvis impersonator in the morning then, if by mid-afternoon you decide that ?I...

Pros Keeps a complex story simple while developing it well.
Cons Some scenes seem disconnect and there are some needless moves into the gutter.
Recommended it? Yes

As I sat down to watch The Story of Us I had no idea what to expect. After all, here was Bruce Willis (who I know best from movies such as Die Hard and Last Man Standing) in an emotional movie with Michelle Pfiefer. I figured this would be really great or really bad.

The basic idea:

This could've been a great movie. Although I'm not usually a big fan of romantic comedies or weepy-teary movies, once in a while there is a movie of this genre that I enjoy. I thought that this might be one of those movies... Unfortunately, I was wrong.

This movie will relate, in some ways, to most married people today. It's a story of a couple who has been married 16 or so years and is going through tough times leading to separation and possibly divorce. The couple, played by Bruce Willis as "Ben" and Michelle Pfeiffer as "Katie" struggles to... Read full review »

Well, I differ from everyone else with this one because I liked this a lot. Maybe the other people have lived their lives without marital strife, but to me, I thought the characters were accurate and emotional. and, I am not one for mushy movies.

Pros Great exploration of marriage...

The Story of Us, directed by Rob Reiner (When Harry Met Sally), examines the dynamics of marriage more than just about any film I have ever seen. I don't think many movie married couples exchange oral arguments as often and as intensely as Ben (Bruce Willis) and Katie (Michelle Pfeiffer). They have... Read full review »

"Lets Have Some Fun"




Has a law been passed that prohibits having fun at the movies?

One would think so by reading most reviews that criticize The Story Of Us.
