Critic Reviews

  • Joe Baltake, Sacramento Bee

    All I can say is that I enjoyed it -- and that I'm ashamed to admit it.

  • (CNN.com) Paul Clinton, CNN.com

    Great escapist fun.

  • Susan Wloszczyna, USA Today

    Director David Mirkin, whose Romy and Michele's High School Reunion was similarly afflicted, never gets the timing right and allows the story to drag with little internal logic.

  • Edward Guthmann, San Francisco Chronicle

    Unless you're a Hackman aficionado, there's no reason to bother with Heartbreakers.

  • Charles Taylor, Salon.com

    Hits just the right note between naughty and raunchy.

    Good cast, and i funny and really funny in places! However the storyline is weak and the film drags at the end that it just gets boring!! Weaver and Hwitt team up as mother and daughter who are con artists and they go on one last con , that then leads to another con, however the… More

  • Candy R


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

  • Dean M


    A mother-and-daughter team runs a scam on a series of wealthy men: the mum marries them, the daughter seduces them, then they split Mum's divorce settlement. The script is only serviceable and the "surprise" twists are telegraphed way in advance, but the star power of… More
