Editorial Review:
Tom (Braff) and Sofia (Peet) have just had their first baby and that means it is time for Tom to grow up. But, when Tom goes to work for his father-in-law, his new boss Chip (Bateman) seems to have it out for him. Tom soon discovers that Chip is still carrying a flame for Sophia from their high school days. Now, Chip will stop at nothing to see Tom out of the company and out of Sophia’s life. As the two go head to head, Tom must expose Chip’s dirty tricks and push him out of the picture forever.
The Ex (Full Screen Edition) Reviews:
Lame 
2007-09-09 - Braff and Bateman are funny actors. The plot is so lame that it defies explanation. They do the best they can with their parts, but the movie has very few laughs. I tried to explain the one funny gag about the "yes" ball to my brother. Nothing. It was a bad sign. Watch Scrubs or Arrested Development in stead.
This is the version you want. 
2007-08-28 - IF YOU SAW THE EX IN THE THEATRE AND LOVED IT, THIS IS THE VERSION YOU WANT! THIS IS THE VERSION THAT WAS SHOWN IN THE THEATRE. The unrated version has a lot of material cut out, including a lot of character development and stuff that made the movie funny in the first place. This PG-13 version is 5 minutes longer than the unrated. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem that this rated version is available in widescreen at this time.
an amusing film
2007-08-22 - This tells the tale of a down and out chef who loses his job right as his wife has a baby. The husband and wife (played by braff and pete) decide on moving from new york back to ohio so that she can stay at home with her newborn, and he can take a job at an add agency. There he meets her "EX" played by jason bateman. A whole comedy of errors, a mish mosh of old ideas and new ideas tossed into one movie. Funny enough to watch again. Give this a chance, worth a chuckle
