    A really toned down (and trying to be a comedy to boot) Grifters. Not 100% successful.

    Jennifer Love Hewitt OMG so HOT in this movie. Ray Liotta's pretty sexy too.

    The script is not. The rest of the movie is not.

    2.5 stars baby

    Female version of Dirty Rotten Scoundrels. Mother and daughter duo set out to con men for their money. Quite funny.

    I think I saw this one...not very memorable.

    I've seen enough bits of it on TV here and there to feel comfortable in rating it.

    What a delightful surprise, I wasn't sure what to expect, but this film had such charming twists and surprises. What was really amazing was how good Jennifer Love Hewitt was. Sigourney Weaver was expectedly fabulous. The scene of which one of them could get a guy to by her a drin...( read more)k first is a classic hysterically funny scene.

    I actually quite liked this movie. It was a Romantic-Comedy, like-no-other. It wasn't hilarious, but more of Utterly Romanticly and Histaricly Outrageous.
    Of course it isn't a Grand and Pitch Perfect Comedy, but Every Scene that is good and funny, are Hysterical and they have an...( read more) Uncanny, Humerous Knack to them. I Suprisingly give it "Three and a Half Stars out of Four". A Slight reccomendation with promises.

A.O. Scott, The New York Times

Naughty is an outdated word in an era of proud nastiness, but Heartbreakers has a slinky, teasing quality that recalls the dressed-up comedies of the studio era. full review

Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

It's not a great comedy, but it's a raucous one, hard-working and ribald, and I like its spirit. full review

David Edelstein, Slate

I'm thrilled to report that Sigourney holds her own. Lord, does that woman work it. full review

Peter Travers, Rolling Stone

Even when director David Mirkin strains for laughs, the actors (a special cheer to Liotta) prove themselves expert farceurs. full review

    This review is overly harsh. I do agree that Jennifer Love Hewitt's boobs should have had top billing. The movie is fun and entertaining. Not Oscar material, but well worth spending a rainy evening watching it.
