Story of Us

Pros: an eye opener for any marriage, hits home about marriage.
Cons: none

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...

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...

Pros: Nice cast
Cons: A bit boring

The Story of Us is about a couple, played by Bruce Willis and Michelle Pfieffer. While their children are off at summer camp, they begin to weigh out their marriage and debate whether or not to get a divorce. In the meantime, they do their best to hide...

Pros: typical story of married life.....you have to have your ups and downs!
Cons: Sad!

How do I begin The Story of Us?

This movie is about a married couple of 8 years that are having troubles in their marriage. They, Ben (Bruce Willis) and Katie (Michelle Pfieffer) are in love, but really don't know how to show each...

Pros: A good story to be told.
Cons: A good story still to be told.

This romantic story left me feeling BLAH!

Ben Jordan (Bruce Willis) and Katie Jordan (Michelle Pfeiffer) are the main characters in this romantic film. I was looking forward to seeing this film knowing that Rob Reiner had directed it....

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

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...

Pros: Very realistic qualities, puts marriage in perspective.
Cons: Movie can be slow at times.

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...

Pros: Great exploration of marriage...
Cons: A lot of comedy misfires.

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...

Pros: Willis is cool, Pfeiffer is as great as always.
Cons: Predictable script with unnecessary 'sitcom' junk.

I got a little misty at the end of this movie and was humiliated for a month. I hope this won't rob me of my Cynic status. I'm embarrassed to be writing this. I went to the video store and followed my normal rule: If I haven't seen it, rent it, and I...

Pros: Interesting idea for a movie, great star power
Cons: plot didn't work, slow movie left me bored, not enough feeling, bad chemistry

The Story Of Us stars Michelle Pfeiffer and Bruce Willis and focuses on the relationship of a couple as they look back over the years they have spent together and decide if their marriage is worth fighting for or if it is time to move on.

Pros: the cast
Cons: everything else

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...

Pros: Will probably reduce illegitimate births
Cons: Will probably reduce legitimate births

I've given up trying to figure out what movies are going to be like from viewing their trailers. From the trailer for The Story of Us, for instance, one would assume that the Bruce Willis-Michelle Pfeiffer flick was a light-hearted romantic comedy that...

Pros: Great Acting
Cons: Terrible Story

You know how embarrassing it is when you're with a couple and they start to fight? Remember how uncomfortable you feel? Well, that's the feeling I got sitting through 90 minutes of Bruce Willis and Michelle Pfeiffer fighting in "The Story of...

Pros: unclouded lessons
Cons: why do people keep giving Michelle Pfeiffer jobs?

This weekend I realized, by watching the movie, "The Story of Us", exactly how powerfully informative the Epinions community is. Everyday I log on to www.evolution.epinions.com and am changed --- and to say that isn't incredible is to say a...

Pros: Realistic look into human relationships
Cons: Didn't probe deeply enough..

Based on your review of this film it is clear to see that you have never been in a serious, committed relationship. And you have never had it fall apart around you like so much hay blown away in a storm. Human relationships are not what we see on Fox...
