If you loved Juliet, Naked, try The Ex

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Jesse Peretz, and they sit in Comedy / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to Juliet, Naked, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Ex is

A man loses his career cushion when fatherhood arrives and must re-enter the workforce by joining his father-in-law's firm. Things escalate when he finds himself locked in a tense professional feud with his wife's ex, who happens to be the company’s paraplegic golden boy. It's less workplace comedy and more workplace awkwardness.
