What Parents Need to Know
About The Break-Up
Parents need to know the movie is premised on ugly, angry fighting between exes still sharing a condo, with several scenes that show real pain. Brooke has her pubic area waxed and parades the result in front of her ex (you see her naked back and legs; other body parts are obscured by objects in frame); in turn, Gary hires strippers for a poker game. Characters call each other names and cruelly make fun of each other and their families (this encompasses jokes about homosexuality, promiscuity, and violence/murder). It also features frequent uses of profanity (including at least one f-word).

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about the difficulties of breaking up, whether with friends or romantic partners. How can you manage this without being mean to your ex? What kinds of bad advice do both Brooke and Gary get from their friends, and how might they behave in more mature, self-respecting ways?

Good Movie!!
Okay, so 17+ yeah right, what are these people talking about here? I thought a movie with Vince Vaughn was bound to have either a lot of sexual content or crude sexual jokes, there was barely any content shown, and yes there was a scene where jennifer aniston was naked but nothing was shown, seriously. The language was pretty minor except for the one f word. All in all it is a good movie to see with your boyfriend and its a modern day movie on relationships, all in all three stars and i think personaly anyone 12 and up can see it.
