- Merrily quintessential Farrelly... Stiller is perfect... Akerman does a fine job in this silly role, recalling a younger Cameron Diaz

  Misses the mark
  
  Creepy comedy that is largely unfunny and features a completely forgettable Ben Stiller. All too often it feels like the Farrelly Brothers are trying to capture... read more »

  This is a Farrelly bros film with Ben Stiller so is pretty much what you'd expect - although it is not any way near 'Something about Mary' it is ok... read more »

  The Heartbreak Kid
  
  I'm usually a big fan of Ben Stiller, but I found this very disappointing. Perhaps I would have enjoyed it more had I not seen the original 70's (80'... read more »

  Not Ben Stillers best film
  
  Really like Ben Stillers films but this one is far from his best. Bit strange in parts. It's not the worst film I have watched but could take it or leave it... read more »

  Poor, just poor.
  
  Typical Ben Stiller fare with barely credible failures to communicate causing twists and turns and, precisely, three laughs end-to-end. This is a poor film.

  The Heartbreak Kid
  
  HORRIBLE on every level!! the Farrelly Bros should be truly shamed! I can't even bring myself to begin describing the torture that was this film.

  Why the awful language!
  
  How sad that this film seems to assume that we all find course and vulgar language amusing. I stopped the film after 30mins. It wasnt worth the effort.

  I'm a Stiller fan, but I have to say he has lost his spark in this movie. I think the chemistry just wasn't there between him and his two leading ladies... read more »
