Heartbreakers

Max Conners, a seasoned con artist, and her daughter Page have successfully swindled numerous men. Their latest target is the wealthy and eccentric tobacco heir William B. Tensy.

While some appreciated the performances of the lead actors, particularly Sigourney Weaver, the film was largely seen as a forgettable comedy with a weak script.

• The film suffers from a predictable plot and uninspired humor.
• Performances are decent, especially Sigourney Weaver's, but can't save the weak script.
