Started out rooting for Jules, but one scene changed it all

In the beginning of this, of course, I was rooting for Jules to get him back, but the scene where she was typing the email on Walter's laptop made me do a 180. Instantly, I was rooting for Kimmy (even though I can't stand Cameron Diaz). That was so evil - and yes, I know, she didn't intend for it to be sent, but still.

I felt so bad for poor Kimmy because she was being so kind and welcoming to this woman he had on a pedestal. Most women would NOT have done that. I'm not a jealous person at all, but I don't know if I could've been THAT accommodating.

Bottom line: the movie had the right ending, in my opinion.

I remember feeling the same way when I first saw this film. It's like we were led to root for Jules because she's the heroine so to speak, but that scene turned it all around and suddenly I was feeling rotten for being on her side. I spent the rest of the film hoping it would all turn around again and she would redeem herself and get the guy, even though by that point I was disgusted with her...

She was pretty vile.

Yeah, messing with someone’s job was taking it way too far.
