Reviews for Heartbreakers
Heartbreakers is the first worthy comedy in a first quarter dedicated to the inferior ones
03/22/01
easily one of the funniest comedies of the year
03/22/01
The humor is relatively sophisticated (that is, no one is hurling or ejaculating), and the cast is lively.
03/22/01
Crippled by tedious pacing and buckles under its more than two-hour length.
03/22/01
You'd practically have to be a laugh track to enjoy it.

An expensive imitation of older, better films from older, often better times.

Top CriticGoony and pleasurable, and often very funny.

There’s something about the sum of Heartbreakers’ parts that leaves one looking for that Extra-Strength Tylenol which specializes in throbbing cinematic hangovers.

The scams seem endless, quickly becoming repetitive and causing the associated humour to also lose its appeal.
03/20/01
Unwieldy, dumb, rarely funny (and never truly hilarious) and largely charmless.
