Additional Information

Jamie Foxx proves a winning romantic lead in the surprisingly subtle Breakin' All the Rules. When Quincy (Foxx, Ali, Collateral) gets brutally dumped by his fiancee, he researches the psychology of firing employees to create a break-up guide--a guide to a kinder, gentler break-up. His cousin Evan (Morris Chestnut, The Brothers) is afraid that his girlfriend is going to dump him, so he asks for Quincy's help, setting in motion a web of mistaken identities that snares Evan's girlfriend Nicky (Gabrielle Union, Bring It On), Quincy's boss Philip (a wonderfully squirmy Peter MacNicol), and a blithe gold digger named Rita (Jennifer Esposito, Dracula 2000). Writer/director Daniel Taplitz gives his characters, if not three dimensions, then two and a half--comedy comes out of their personalities instead of lame gags. Add in some unpredictable plot twists, genuine chemistry between Foxx and Union, and the result is genuinely fun. --Bret Fetzer - Amazon.com

The game is on, and the rules are out as Jamie Foxx, Morris Chestnut, Jennifer Esposito and Gabrielle Union star in this outrageous comedy that rewrites the book of love. After being dumped by his fianc e, aspiring writer Quincy Watson (Foxx) pens the ultimate how-to book on breaking up. When it becomes a smash bestseller, Quincy starts giving his cousin, Evan (Chestnut), choice tips on how to win the battle of the sexes. But when Evan s beautiful girlfriend Nikki (Union) gets wind of the plan, it s these players that end up getting played in this sexy comedy of errors about breaking up, breaking through,and breaking all the rules.
