Review of The Heartbreak Kid (2007) by Andy W — 07 Apr 2009
Okay, it's no surprise when the Farrelly Brothers make a somewhat uncomfortable movie to watch, but for the soon-to-be-married reviewer I found the film to be incredibly/painfully awkward. Yeah, it's pretty funny.
Ben Stiller (notafan) is pretty good here. And Malin Akkerman is fantastic as this (You're Damn Right!) too good to be true beauty who goes apenuts. And it's the other film in which Michelle Monaghan is just cute as a button (Kiss Kiss Bang Bang is the other one).
But the gross out humor is a tired storytelling technique and the plot is just too damn painful for me. Sorry. VF.
