Editorial Review:
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
Description of Breakin' All the Rules (Special Edition):
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
Breakin' All the Rules (Special Edition) Reviews:
all rules broke. 
2009-11-21 - Interesting movie with an all start cast of African Americans actors and the delicious Gabrielle Union......oh wee, let's say her smile is the main reason I had to buy this product. Jamie Fox and Morris Chestnut deliver excellent performances.
The story in a way is funny and true. Poor white boss is being used by his chick.
Breakin all the rules 
2009-04-14 - This is a good movie to watch on a first date or just to hang out and have some laughs Jamie Foxx is as always a funny character!!!
Not Bad 
2007-10-28 - Breakin All the Rules is a good movie. Very funny at times, a lot of laugh out loud moments, a good storyline, and great/believable chemistry between Union and Fox. And the pug did a great job also!! It's always great to see a good love story - especially one involving African American main characters.
I'll give it an "A" for effort. Though not flawless, this movie is not disappointing and should be given a try.
Note to Self:: If You need to Break up Get Jamie Foxx to Do It!
2006-06-06 - Well, first ya gotta look at what type of movie it is. By no means was it planned out to be an Oscar Winner, or a Blockbusting Special Effects Movie...It's just plain Funny. You have about 3 or 4 misdirections in the fact that Quincy (Foxx)is sent his friend Evan(Chestnut) To break-up with E.'s Girl Niki. Who has a feeling that is what is happeneing so she lies and says her name is Mary. So all Chaos insues. But in the end everyone gets the girl; it's a Funny comedy of Errors. As usual Jamie Foxx is funny as ever, and aside from the main plot there are little side things that make you laugh.
I only gave this movie a 3 because I'm comparing it to ALL the other movies...but as far as a comedy Date movies this bad boy is a 4.5+. So I Hope you find this review useful. And Yes the tips in the movie actually are useful. I only gave them a "Field Test" Once...but they worked like a charm. This isn't the same type of movie as Brown Sugar, or any of the other movies that are billing like this one. It is truely in a class of its own. Got a lil' something for the guys to laugh at, and the girls to get a little something out of too.
One thing is for sure...she'll definately understand after watching the movie why the words "Baby we need to Talk" Scare a dude to death. Enjoy Guys!
HELP...!!! Need to find song from this moive. C'mon
2005-05-31 - I have been looking everywhere for this song. I can not find it on any Mystikal CD's. The song is played throughout the movie and also when Q hits his cuz and starts to walk out of the building to get the girl. If you know where to find this song, please let me know.
