If The Heartbreak Kid doesn't go totally wrong, its big problem is that doesn't really go anywhere. It just sort of lies there, like dumb Lila on the beach, waiting to turn gold.

The original's premise has been stripped of anything to do with upward mobility, and except for one shot involving a Prince Albert, the Farrellys' signature shock humor is largely absent.
David Fear, Time Out New York

[A] hit-or-miss, not-as-bad-as-you've-heard remake of the 1972 minor classic.

It just falls flat, flat, flat.
Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper

Gratingly unfunny, mean-spirited Farrelly brothers flick.
