"It's" is a contraction of "it is" or "it has"; it is not an acceptable alternate spelling of "its", a possessive determiner.

* UnintentionallyUnsympathetic: The movie tries to play Elizabeth and Matt as equally messed up people, with plenty of characters implying that their marriage had been failing for a while. But as the couple never get scenes together, Elizabeth comes across as incredibly unsympathetic given that she had an affair with a married man. By all accounts, she was the one who initiated it and kept it going. Brian at least shows remorse for what he did to Julie, but Elizabeth is in a coma for the whole movie, so we never find out if she regretted what she did. About the only redeeming thing about her is that she was at least intending to get a divorce rather than carrying on behind Matt's back.

But she also knew about Elizabeth potentially ruining two families and we never know if she advised her against it. Thus it's oddly cathartic when Matt fires back with the WHAMLine that Elizabeth isn't going to wake up from her coma.

* AlternateCharacterInterpretation:
** Did Elizabeth truly love Brian? She was an adrenaline junkie who abruptly cheated on Matt and then seemed to immediately ask Brian to leave his wife. Was she really in love, or did she just love the drama a divorce would create?
** Matt's kiss to Julie after he has had it out with Brian - is that his little bit of revenge? Or is it a gesture of sympathy after getting to know how sweet Julie is? Or possibly an attempt to clue her in that something is wrong without having to be the one to tell her (and therefore force Brian to confess)?

She has no idea how to process her mother's condition and she spends the whole movie hoping in vain that she'll wake up. Matt and Alex can't bring themselves to tell her the truth about the affair because it would break her so much.
** Julie seems to be a kind, friendly woman and loving wife. Look at how warm and affectionate she is with Alex after only just meeting her. Then remember that Brian cheated on her with a woman he didn't even love. Julie screaming that she wants to forgive Elizabeth even though she should hate her is heart-breaking.
