THE HEARTBREAK KID Film Review - 16/10/07

The only heartbreak in this film was actually having to watch this tedious shite for over two and a half hours as it dragged on and on. A judiciously sliced and pasted Trailer for this which totally misrepresented the film itself had a handful of laughs stretched over it's running time. Not only dull and boring - This tedium preached to it's audience that being single sucks, being married sucks, being newlyweds sucks . . . You get the picture? Ben Stiller plays a guy who can't commit to marriage; he then on the spur of the moment gets involved with a girl and proposes, on the honeymoon he realises that he has married a monster and then meets the girl of his dreams, much hilarity ensues. . . (Supposedly?) The film was so popular that it played to an audience of four in a 400 seat cinema. I asked the 2 people I went with what they thought of the film? "Crap" they both replied. So the redeeming feature of this film is that it is crap. Ben Stiller I want 2 hours of my life back please!
