The rebound, starring Catherine Zeta Jones and Justin Bartha is a very cute romantic comedy. The movie is definitely lifted up higher by the strong performances of the lead actors. Catherine definitely carries the film very well and I love her performance in this. Justin Bartha was pretty good, he wasn't amazing and I probably would have preferred someone else in his role but he still wasn't bad, it's just that sometimes in movies you would prefer someone in a role and that was the case here. But the dialogue and writing overall was good, I was pleased with it. The chemistry overall between the actors was sufficient, not the best I've ever seen, but certainly not bad at all. The rebound has light funny moments with a little romance mixed in, then it has more weighty dramatic moments. The movie carries those moments well. Also, I was just so entertained by this movie as a whole, it really does satisfy what you're most likely wanting to see if you do decide to view this film. The ending is very well done, it wraps up nicely, not quite how you may expect it to wrap up, but I think the ending is great. 8/10 for the rebound.

i kinda like the movie...because i like Catherine and i am into romantic movies....but it was a little boring....the plot is a middle aged woman Catherine is divorced and bumped into a young guy who is her baby sitter and fall in love ...on the other side the young guy Justin is also divorced but things with them did not work out so well and they get parted and reunites like many movies...........coming to the roles Catherine is amazing as always and Justin is good at his character but the romance between them is not so good....i mean i liked it but there is something missing....i hope it has more to it....finally i would say its not a bad movie for once to watch.........

This movie was a pleasant surprise. It starts a little slow but it soon picks up steam. Justin Bartha was incredible and very believable. I am so glad to see him getting the lines and the billing he deserves. Catherine was magnificent as always. They appeared to have a great chemistry between them. The script and directing were very good. The kids, Sadie, Kelly Gould and Frank Jr. Andrew Cherry were very good. I am usually not a big fan of child actors but these two are real pros and add a lot to the movie. Finally, some supporting characters that deserve mention are Sandy's boss Laura, played by Lynn Whitfield and Aram's parents played by Art Garfunkel and Joanna Gleason. They played their roles wonderfully. I have watched this movie half a dozen times and it still charms me and makes me want to watch it again. I really love this movie.

Its a nice movie .... Very predictable (like all other love stories ) but nicely presented .... Though i almost always knew what was going to happen next , but something in me wanted to see more and more .... Actors fit in their roles perfectly .... The way the story moves u wont get bored at any moment .... The reason m not rating it higher because i felt as if the director has rushed it towards the end .... As if he was in a hurry to finish the movie ....I have seen it twice in past one week and i wont mind seeing it again .... Worth watching movie ....If u like love stories you'll definitely like this one
