The mystery of a real-life couple (or ex-couple) playing a couple on-screen can affect your reaction. Kubrick used this to great effect in EYES WIDE SHUT, but usually it doesn't work out well -- you're just searching them to see what the "real Bennifer" are all about, rather than focusing on the characters.
Man, all I can say is, if only those jackasses hadn't insisted GIGLI come out first...
