Break your Heart with this Kid

Caught Heartbreak Kid yesterday. Eddie (Ben Stiller), a 40 yr old lonesome man meets Lila (Malin Akerman) on the street & after 6 weeks believes that she is the Ms Right for him. However, during the honeymoon, another side of his new wife is revealed, which becomes nightmare come true for Eddie. Worst of all, he meets another woman, Miranda (Michelle Monaghan) during this period, who seems to be completely perfect for him. In this cruel script, everybody seems to be a victim in some way or another.

Ben Stiller seems to play such similar kind of role for many times. I guess the only difference this time is that, he's a bit more sinister and a much bigger jerk. Most of the other cast portrayed their role perfectly too. Malin Akerman, who isn't afraid of embarrassing herself or showing off her body. The physical humor of her & Ben Stiller creates the biggest laughs in the movie. Michelle Monaghan renown from Mission Impossible, is charming & sweet as the adorable and beautiful Miranda. Jerry Stiller is irksome as Eddie's dad whom influences his son to get married quickly & Carlos Mencia is also comical as the hotel staff.


Heartbreak Kid is funny, but not an instant classic, so watch it on weekdays if you have the time & laugh your time away.
Tips learnt:
- Do not sing non-stop when u're with him

- Do not attempt sun-tanning without sun block lotion

- When stung by jelly fish, pee on it

- Most imptly, before you sign on the dotted line of marriage cert, ask if your other half has any debts, was involved in drugs before & any sexual desire!
