Richard Corliss
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.
David Fear
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.
Owen Gleiberman
[A] hit-or-miss, not-as-bad-as-you've-heard remake of the 1972 minor classic.
Richard Roeper
It just falls flat, flat, flat.
Stephanie Zacharek
Gratingly unfunny, mean-spirited Farrelly brothers flick.
Claudia Puig
Though not as engaging as Knocked Up, there is enough humor to keeps us entertained.

Strip away the appalling gross-out gags and you'd be left with a movie worth seeing.

I Love You, Man
Comedy

In this wildly funny hit comedy, Paul Rudd (KNOCKED UP) gets engaged to the girl of his dreams but has not a single guy friend to be his Best Man until he meets the ultimate dude, Jason Segal (FORGETTING SARAH MARSHALL). Rudd and Segal's "bro-mance" takes male-bonding to hilarious new heights that keep you laughing until the unforgettable last frame.
Breakfast at Tiffany's
4
The names Audrey Hepburn and Holly Golightly have become synonymous since this dazzling romantic comedy was translated to the screen from Truman Capote's best-selling novella. Holly is a deliciously eccentric New York City playgirl determined to marry a Brazilian millionaire. George Peppard plays her next-door neighbour, a writer who is "sponsored" by a wealthy Patricia Neal. Guessing who's the right man for Holly is easy. Seeing just how that romance blossoms is one of the enduring delights of this gem-like treat set to Henry Mancini's Oscar®-winning score and the Oscar®-winning Mancini-Johnny Mercer song "Moon River."

Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy
Comedy
4
There was a time before cable when the local anchorman reigned supreme....Enter the hard-hitting world of the 1970s local TV news, where Ron Burgundy (Will Ferrell) and his loyal Channel 3 New Team are San Diego's #1 rated news source. All is well in their male-dominated world of news until beautiful, rising-star reporter Veronica Corningstone turns it all upside down. Sparks don't just fly, they ignite an all-out war between the two perfectly coiffed anchorpersons. In a job where it pays to keep a straight face, Anchorman is the comedy that makes it almost impossible to stop laughing.

In this outrageous comedy, Kirk (Jay Baruchel, "Knocked Up", "Tropic Thunder"), an average guy, can't believe his luck when the successful and gorgeous babe Molly (Alice Eve, "Sex and the City 2") falls for him. His smart-ass friends, his crazy family, and even his obnoxious ex-girlfriend are just as shocked as he is. Now, see what the critics are calling a "rowdy blast"* as Kirk goes to great lengths - including some hardcore man-scaping - to make the relationship work and prove that she's not out of his league. *Peter Travers, ROLLING STONE"

Genre-smashing filmmaker Edgar Wright tells the amazing story of one romantic slacker's quest to power up with love.

Crazy, Stupid, Love
Comedy

At fortysomething, straight-laced Cal Weaver (Steve Carell) is living the dream—good job, nice house, great kids and marriage to his high school sweetheart. But when Cal learns that his wife, Emily (Julianne Moore), has cheated on him and wants a divorce, his "perfect" life quickly unravels. The hapless Cal is taken on as wingman and protégé to handsome, thirtysomething player Jacob Palmer (Ryan Gosling). In an effort to help Cal get over his wife and start living his life, Jacob opens Cal's eyes to the many options before him: flirty women, manly drinks and a sense of style that can't be found at Supercuts or The Gap. But despite Cal's makeover and his many new conquests, the one thing that can't be made over is his heart, which seems to keep leading him back to where he began.
