Summary: Funny and Sneaky!
Review: Get ready to lose your heart (and your bank account) to Jennifer Love Hewitt and to Sigourney Weaver! Extremely funny and very Sneaky, this comedy is very enjoyably (not for kids though!) and has the most unimaginable sneaky tricks available. The whole cast (almost the whole cast...) is enjoyable in their own way to watch. Of coarse I enjoyed "Legally Blonde" more but that's probably because I like watching law movies and TV shows (like Ally McBeal). Still this is a great comedy for people who enjoyed watching "Legally Blonde" and "The Wedding Planner"!-------------------------AHMED MASHHOOD--------------------------

Summary: Nothing like a great laugh
Review: I was dragged to this movie kicking and screaming (well, not really...). I didn't want to see it, or at least, I didn't want to see it as much as I wanted to see "Spy Kids." (Please take this opportunity to laugh at the grown man wanting to watch a kids movie, but hey, it was Robert Rodriguez.) From the very opening shot of the film, I was drawn in, not because it was funny, but because this film struck me in a different way: It was a visually stunning comedy. It is from beginning to end, shot with expert cinematography; and packed between the bookends of great shots are so many huge laughs that I literally clutched my stomach and fell out of my seat. The whole theater was erupting in constant laughter at this marvel of a comedy that just kept pounding away at your funny bone, not giving you a second to stop and think. This film is so jam-packed with great laughs, yet with a very sweet sentimentality, that I would recommend it so much so as to name it one of the best comedies I've seen in years, which pretty much puts in a secluded list with Kevin Smith films and the "American Pies." The main reason for it is because the cast is so wonderful, and we never doubt for a second that all of them are having the time of their lives, making this trifle of a guilty pleasure. Ranging from screen veterans like Sigourney Weaver (most widely known for her Oscar-nominated portrayal of the first woman hero in space, Lt. Ellen Ripley of the "Alien" fame), Gene Hackman (do I really need to explain this guy's resume?), and Ray Liotta (with a complete, intact brain, despite his last bad career move), to "PO5"'s Jennifer Love Hewitt, looking as incredible as ever, and one of my personal favorite actors, Jason Lee, who delivers every line with the precision of a great comic actor. The film opens during a wedding between the Weaver and Liotta characters, which it turns out, wasn't meant to be, as he no sooner gets out of bed the morning after than he's got his secretary's hair caught in his zipper during some hilarious filandering. The marriage ends with a settlement, of course; somewhere in the neighborhood of $300,000, I believe, and Weaver goes on her way. But we soon find out, much to our shock (that is, if we didn't see the previews), that the skimpy dressed secretary was, in fact, Weaver's daughter, Page (Hewitt). The mother-daughter chemistry between these two here is perfect. If it wasn't, the only way you could've saved this movie was by giving Jason Lee center stage and having him recite the game show scenes of "Mallrats." But they didn't have to resort to that: The movie works perfectly without the brilliant Kevin Smith dialogue we're used to Lee spewing with steely perfection because it's got a heart, one that isn't broken by these two con-artists, and it keeps on getting bigger, like the Grinch or something. Anyway, the majority of the film circulates between four plots that all co-exist flawlessly: 1) Regaining the money lost to the IRS by conning a cigarette tycoon name Tensy (Hackman, in one of the most hilariously repulsive roles ever played), 2) A separate, last-ditch effort con between Lee and Hewitt that could actually be real love, 3) The typical "I'm ready to strike out on my own" argument between mother and daughter, and 4) The Liotta character's pursuit of Weaver, whom he still loves, despite what happened. All of this is happening at once at certain points in the film, and it would've fallen apart without a good director, and the immense amount of comic energy displayed by the perfect cast. I love this movie, and I've been recommending it to everyone from the moment I stepped out of the theater. If you're in the mood for exhaustingly funny, intelligent/slapstick comedy, this is the movie for anyone with a sense of humor.

Summary: Screwball comedy; Hackman steals the show
Review: This screwball comedy brings together some great dramatic actors in unaccustomed comedic roles. The results are mixed (but mostly good), with some terrific slapstick and some pure drivel. Maxine (Sigourney Weaver) and Paige (Jennifer Love Hewitt) are two very slick con artists who find rich patsies and marry them, only to divorce them for big settlements after enticing them into indiscretions. When they get nabbed by the IRS for not paying their taxes, they must score one more time to climb out of their financial mess. The target is chain smoking billionaire William B. Tensy (Gene Hackman) who is dying before our eyes of lung disease. The only question is whether Maxine can get him to propose before he keels over. Meanwhile, Paige is running her own scam on Jack (Jason Lee) who owns a bar resting on prime real estate worth $3 Million. It is mostly pratfall humor, with lots of sight gags and general nuttiness, which is often uproariously funny. The whole idea that the diminutive Paige could have been spawned from the Amazonian Maxine is implied comedy at its finest, leading us to conclude that Paige's father could only have been a midget. Gene Hackman completely steals the show as the wheezy billionaire. Hackman, who is one of our national treasures as a dramatic actor, shows magnificent range, and he turns out to be the best comedian of the bunch. Sigourney Weaver is also in rare form brandishing some bodacious outfits and undergarments. She is especially funny as Olga, trotting out impressive broken English and even doing some vocals accompanied by a Russian balalaika band. Ray Liotta gives a lighthearted and funny performance as a chop shop owner who can't get over his love for Maxine, even though he knows she scammed him. Jason Lee's understated nice guy portrayal serves as the perfect counterpart to Jennifer Love Hewitt's bratty vamp. The perennially cute Hewitt still can't seem to transition into grownup roles. No matter how sexy they make her up (and they do quite a good job with her considerable attributes), her pubescent mannerisms and delivery still make her come off as a teenage harpy. In her defense, this is what the role required, but it doesn't do much to move her out of her character rut. Overall, there is a lot of good fun here that is often dissipated by puerile absurdity. Still, there are plenty of laugh-out-loud moments, mostly delivered by Weaver and Hackman, that make this a better than average comedy. I rated it 7/10. Fans who like seeing Sigourney and Jennifer in sexy outfits will not be disappointed.

Summary: I Hated It
Review: I saw this movie once when it was in theaters and I almost walked out of the theater. It wasn't that funny and it was actually kind of boring. I thought it would be a good but after I saw it, I thought it sucked. The only actor who I thought was a little funny was Ray Liotta but the others were not that funny. Don't watch this movie, it is not that funny.

Summary: Does not make it.
Review: Dialogue is wanting, acting is forced. Light plot but you know the ending after 1/4 of the film is finished. Good to rent, bad to own.

Summary: All Fluff, No Buff
Review: I rented this movie with the main reason being that I wanted to see Jennifer Love Hewitt in revealing clothing and acting trashy. Well I definitely got that, and nothing else.
This is an utterly forgettable movie and halfway through it I was simply fast forwarding to the parts with JLH in skimpy outfits. Plot: Standard fare. I feel like I've seen this movie a thousand times before. Trying to be a clever comedy but with the sweet romantic angle in order to make me care about the leads. I don't. Writing: Awful. The characters are paper-thin. The jokes are all run of the mill stuff that seem mildly amusing at times, but never make me laugh out loud. And the romantic side-plot is totally contrived and seems to be just thrown in because it has to be in this type of movie. JLH: Trying her best to act bitchy and lose her good girl image, but doesn't pull it off. Sigourney Weaver: Was she even in this film? You could have put any number of aging starlets in this role. She surely didn't do anything with a two-dimensionally written character to give it any depth. Ray Liotta: Playing your typical comedic-Italian-Mafia stereotype. Gene Hackman: The only character who was even remotely funny or entertaining. Jason Lee: Just getting paid by playing an idiotic bar owner who falls for JLH for no apparent reason other that he enjoys being chastised unmercifully. What a stupid film

Summary: A poor woman's "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels"
Review: For fans of con movies. Reminded me of "Dirty
Rotten Scoundrels," but not nearly as good. "Heartbreakers"
reaches for too many farcical jokes which hurt the story.
I grant that it's very hard to keep a funny moment out of a
play or movie, but discipline is really needed to make a
comedy work (unless the entire movie is a string of farcical
jokes, like "Blazing Saddles.") "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels"
succumbed to the temptation once in the middle of the film,
and it was a mistake, but unimportant in the overall
picture. "Heartbreakers" does it too often, and the
cast -- yes, even Gene Hackman who should know better --
falls in along with it, turning at times into parodies of
themselves. It's a fine script, poorly directed, but
overall entertaining enough and a pleasant way to spend a couple of hours.
Rating:
Summary: Extremely Exciting & Fairly Funny
Review: Heartbreakers is an intelligent and creative story, based on two con women, it is funny and unpredictable. It is highly recommended.
