Great escapist fun.

Paul Clinton (CNN.com), CNN.com
Rotten

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.

Heartbreakers is one of these guilty pleasures.

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

Hits just the right note between naughty and raunchy.
