Dir: Peter Farrelly, Bobby Farrelly, The Farrelly Brothers
2007
*
I only watched The Heartbreak Kid for the fantastic Jerry Stiller. I though a Stiller father and son film would be quite funny but that wasn't really the case, a couple of mildly funny scenes aside, it was bitterly disappointing and Stiller junior has inherited none of Stiller Senior's natural flare for comedy. Although this film is a loose remake, it feels as if the Farrelly brothers made it up as they went along and by the time you get half way, you just want it to be over. Shame really as it didn't start off too badly. Watch it for the scene with Jerry Stiller and Kayla Kleevage in a hot-tub in Vegas but nothing more.
