Critic Reviews
Folks who are desperate to ogle Hewitt and Weaver probably can't be warned off this turkey.
To its credit, Heartbreakers lives up to expectations. Almost.
Heartbreakers itself is something of a con game: an expensive imitation of older, better films from older, often better times.
Despite its talented and/or attractive cast, Heartbreakers is an ugly movie: The kind that makes you feel slightly soiled afterwards.
There's nothing wrong with the structure of Heartbreakers, but David Mirkin's direction is woefully clumsy -- and the movie's tone is nasty.
A limp and annoying picture.
When the youngsters are out of the way and old pros Hackman and Weaver work, it's hard to really dislike Heartbreakers. Sometimes, it's even a little bit of harmless fun.
Crudely entertaining comedy.
Cries out for the brisk pacing of a Sturges or a Wilder. As is, it's too lumpish, languid, and lukewarm to hit even the guilty pleasure zone.
