One of the least humorous films of the bunch, Kramer vs. Kramer stars Dustin Hoffman and Meryl Streep as a couple going through a messy divorce. The film suggests that falling out of love is just as easy as falling in love €“ Mr and Mrs Kramer don€™t particularly hate each other, they have just become out of sync with each other. The divorce battle than ensues is bitter, personal and completely eclipses the film€™s happier times €“ I warn you, this one€™s not a light-hearted two fingers up to love. Why is it anti-love? Kramer vs. Kramer is less €œI hate love," more €œlove has destroyed me€. This couple don€™t seem to care enough to hate each other, but the divorce battle is still a personal attack. Most anti-love moment? Mr Kramer€™s chipper mood being destroyed by Mrs Kramer€™s announcement that she is leaving him.
