What.....my title wasn't enough of a warning.....you want details? You can't handle the details! Friends have we lowered ourselves to the point to say this is entertainment? What are Ben Stiller and Michelle Managhan doing in a cesspool like this? This "movie" is an offense to every adult who cherishes a decent and entertaining romantic comedy. This is so vile I almost got sick from trying to watch it! I had to shut the sound off after ten minutes and finally scanned to get to the end. Pathetic and creepy! Disgusting!

I am a bit puzzled as to why the DVD says it is "edited for content". Does anyone know just what this means?? I cannot imagine what could possibly have been left out of the original theatrical release for the DVD release. It was Rated R and warned of "Strong Sexual Content" which I have already seen, I think?? Surely the DVD would contain any and all original scenes, especially with the deleted scenes included?? Does anyone know for sure about this?? Also does anyone know why the widescreen version is 115 minutes long and the fullscreen version is 114 minutes long?? Is one version more complete than the other?? Malin Akerman is an absolute babe and Ben Stiller's character had to be crazy to cheat on her, as his new bride Lila with Michelle Monaghan's character. It is much raunchier, risque and racier than the 1972 film version with Charles Grodin and Cybill Shepherd. But, considering the remake was directed by the Farrelly brothers it is not really all that surprising. It is funny and the humor is not for all tastes, although not quite as outrageous as Bad Santa, which I also like. Not for the prudish or those easily offended. But if you have a thick skin, just sit back and enjoy it.

I'm a big fan of the Farrelly brothers. "There's Something About Mary." Wonderful. "Shallow Hal." Hysterical. But hey, even Cadillacs sometimes leak oil; and in keeping with the metaphor, the Farrellys leaked a couple quarts with THE HEARTBREAK KID.
Don't get me wrong, this movie does have several funny moments; I was literally rolling on the floor with one particular scene involving Carlos Mencia as the 'victim' of a vicious hand slap. Yet the film doesn't work for a myriad of reasons, the most obvious one being Ben Stiller's character. When the story begins, Stiller plays a commitment-evasive guy who finally takes the plunge and marries what he thinks is his 'dream girl.' Trouble is, she's his Nightmare on Elm Street; so our protagonist feels compelled to lie, manipulate, connive, trick, thwart, deceive, and weave to get into the good graces of a new woman he's met. . .on his honeymoon. Of course, the more he dodges and weaves, the more trouble he finds himself in--surely, by the end of the film, a golden lesson has been learned?
By the end, alas, Stiller's character is still a liar, manipulator, conniver, trickster, thwarter, deceiver, and dodge 'n weaver (this guy oughta run for office). I discovered I didn't give two cents about him at the beginning of the film, and the character sure didn't appreciate in value by the end. Heads up: This is not your favorite aunt's 'There's Something About Mary'. . .there are some eye-popping scenes that are definitely not for the faint of heart. Maybe that's why this turkey is called THE HEARTBREAK KID. Might be on to something.

I think a lot of people forgot to look at the rating. Its rated R not for some potty mouth but some nudity and some raunch. I was not expecting much, much like I expect from any movie out these days, but was pleasantly surprised. There are a few moments that I was in stiches, and some others that fell flat. Carlos Mencia I thought was so dumb in this he actually cracked me up, I think that was the point "Ah screw off, I am joking". Akerman is good in this, Stiller is pretty funny at times, but it was Monaghan that I really enjoyed in this. Picture a brunette Mary Swanson (Cameron Diaz), but cuter and funnier. Her and her family kind of made this movie for me.
Overall, I enjoyed it, not the best movie but not nearly as bad as many are making it out to be. 3.5 stars
