Rotten
It has neither a cynic's conviction nor idealist's perseverance, and its ideas about what a woman wants seem cribbed from bad paperback fiction.
Wesley Morris, Boston Globe
Fresh
Chaumeil's comedy cum scenery -- mainly Monte Carlo -- gives the mercurial Romain Duris a chance to show his chops as an homme fatal.
Joe Morgenstern, Wall Street Journal
Rotten
Alas, it turns out to be just as bad as any routine French romantic comedy -- illogical, inconsistent and sloppily written, a charmless, tasteless, witless waste of time.
Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle
Rotten
The travelogue component of Heartbreaker is its best selling point.
Peter Rainer, Christian Science Monitor
