Synopsis
A man who writes the book on ending a romance runs into rough
sledding while starting a new one in this comedy. Quincy (Jamie Foxx) is a
magazine editor whose life takes an unexpected turn for the worse when his
fiancée, Helen (Bianca Lawson), decides to give him some interesting news at
their engagement party -- she's breaking up with him. A few days later, Quincy's
boss, Phillip (Peter MacNichol), gives him the task of cutting manpower in his
department by 15 percent; too emotionally beaten to fire anyone, Quincy responds
by quitting his job. Deeply depressed, Quincy begins writing a letter to Helen
to explain his feelings, but as he analyses his emotions, his notes take a
different turn, and Quincy decides to write a book about how to painlessly break
up with someone. The book becomes a smash best-seller, and Quincy's friends
begin turning to him for advice on the subject of getting out of relations.
Quincy's cousin Evan (Morris Chestnut) is eager to call things off with his
girlfriend, Nicky (Gabrielle Union), and asks him to do the dirty work for him;
however, Evan begins to have second thoughts when he discovers Quincy has fallen
for her. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide
