The Heartbreak Kid (Widescreen Edition
|
Product Description
Amazon.com
Ben Stiller and the Farrelly brothers bring out the best in each other. In The Heartbreak Kid, Stiller plays Eddie Cantrow, who--persuaded by his father and friends that he's commitment-phobic--marries a gorgeous and seemingly ideal woman named Lila (Malin Akerman, The Brothers Solomon) that he's been dating for several weeks. But after the wedding, things start to go awry... the least of these being that on their honeymoon, Eddie meets a woman who might truly be the girl of his dreams (Michelle Monaghan, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang). As in There's Something About Mary, writers/directors Bobby and Peter Farrelly push Stiller away from his increasingly schticky "tense guy" persona and draw out his sweeter, more multilayered earnest side. On his end, Stiller provides a human core to what could just be a festival of raunch and absurdity (the movie features aroused donkeys, deviated septum jokes, and digitally-enhanced body hair, among other items of questionable taste). It only takes a quick comparison with Jim Carrey in Me, Myself & Irene or Jack Black in Shallow Hal to see what a surprisingly delicate balance that is. The Heartbreak Kid may not be quite as wildly sublime as There's Something About Mary, but it comes extremely close, with kudos to Akerman for her unrestrained nuttiness. --Bret Fetzer
Product Description
Big laughs head south of the border in the Farrelly Brothers' newest twist on boy-meets-girl. When the single and indecisive Eddie (Ben Stiller) meets the sexy and beautiful Lila (Malin Akerman) the guy who could never pull the trigger jumps the gun. While honeymooning in Mexico Eddie discovers he's made a really big mistake. He soon meets Miranda (Michelle Monaghan) his real soul mate. But when the love of your life isn't your wife things can get quickly out of control. Now it will take some desperate measures to turn his honeymoon from hell into the perfect romantic getaway.DVD Features: Commentary: Commentary by the Farrelly Brothers Other: The Farrelly Brothers in the French Tradition Other: Ben & Jerry Other: Heartbreak Halloween Other: The Egg Toss Bloopers: Gag Reel Additional Scenes: Deleted Scenes: Additional Scenes: On the Beach Additional Scenes: Fire Dancers Additional Scenes: Breakfast Order Additional Scenes: Sky Diver Additional Scenes: Pillow Additional Scenes: Driving with Dad Easter Eggs: Peter's Greatest Pratical Joke EverSystem Requirements:Running Time: 176 Mins.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: COMEDY/ROMANTIC COMEDY Rating: R UPC: 097361179940 Manufacturer No: 117994

No-No-NO! (2007-12-12)
|
No, no, no, no, NO. I have nothing good to say about this movie, except that the popcorn at the Maverick tastes scrumptious. (Although it almost came back up watching this movie.) Bad plot, not funny, horrible ending. This film is a perfect example of how famous actors do not automatically make a movie good.

One of the WORST Movies I've Ever Seen (2009-08-16)
|
Since Amazon doesn't have a zero star rating, I can only give it one star. PLEASE don't waste your money and time on this horrible remake. You can still find copies of the 1972 original starring... (More)

Not Terrible, But A One-Timer Only (2009-08-10)

Before anything, I wouldn't call this film "bad", but it's definitely nothing original nor is it all that exciting. I would reserve it for a one-time rental deal unless you're a die hard Stiller fan.... (More)

This movie was great! I love comedies and this one was worth watching for sure. There were so many funny expected scenes. I find something new that's funny in it everytime I watch it. (More)
