THE HEARTBREAK KID HEARTBREAKINGLY UNFUNNYThe Farrelly brothers have previously brought us many films that were soooo either politically incorrect or gross-reality that were far more entertaining than 98% of this film would hope to be. There were a few, very, very few scenes that borderline on humorous in this film. For the most part, this film was long, boring and lifeless. Ben Stiller plays a man who weds too quickly and then discovers the "real" woman he married has many flaws. So, while ON HIS HONEYMOON he bumps into a bland, I mean, brunette, Michelle Monaghan, and falls in love with her. The plot is weak, the jokes are either predictable or flat dumb and it is way too long. We get the gag, and then get it again and again and again as if we didn't get it the first time. Stiller dozed off through the film where everyone else took full on naps. The only thing that broke my heart was having to sit through the whole thing. Note to self, write to Farrelly brothers and ask for rebate on rental fee.
NOT a Pick: Too long, not funny, not worth the time or money.
