With comic misunderstandings more irritating than funny, the movie gets tedious over its 1:45 . Ben Stiller goes through the motions as a newlywed who falls in love with another woman on his honeymoon, but never sells either relationship and so much effort is put into making his wife unlikable that it only makes him look worse for having not put more effort into getting to know her. Pretty much every conflict in the movie is forced by either coincidence or implausible character choices.

A bit of a mess, frankly. It has some funny parts, if you are in the mood, but overall it doesn't work. Not recommended.

A couple of laughs.

popcorn, Michelle Monaghan, Malin Akerman

A very average comedy that is no where near as good as the Farrelly's early work, but much better than the stuff they have been doing the past several years. The soundtrack for the movie makes this movie a lot more entertaining than it would be without it.

It has a few good moments, but they evaporate in the light of the mind-numbing and basically unfunny practical jokes.

Stupid start but ends pretty well. Not the best comedy but gave me a few good laughs. However, the story is just stupid, but they've put some nice twists in it, which made it enjoyable. Also one of the few movies in which I like Ben Stiller.

This movie has some funny moments, but got very much off the track. One of the major plot points relies on one of those painful 'strange and unbelievably stupid misunderstanding'-jokes that are not so much funny as embarrassing to watch. I respect "The Heartbreak Kid" for it's original attempt at closure in the end, but that's about it.

Painfully contrived; nothing could save this script.

Seems like at least some of the critical bile aimed at this is b/c it forgoes any of the commentary on male delusion& selfishness that was central 2 the more subtle but vastly overrated original. While it's true that it gets progressively more outrageous & silly in its 2nd half w/ more than one predictable 3's Company-like misunderstanding & ends on a "joke" that lands w/ a colossal thud, the first half has more laugh-out-loud moments than the majority of comedies have in any given year combined

Real embarrassing, but Malin Akerman is hot.

A wonderful 105 minutes...if you don't feel like laughing

This movie has some good laughs but not enough to recommend it. I have not seen the original. This is nowhere near the Farrelly brother's best movies. There are some supporting characters in this film that just fall flat instead of being funny.
