The Heartbreak Kid
“A hip, hot and sexy lesson in love.”
RomanceComedy
Three days into his Miami honeymoon with needy and unsophisticated Lila, Lenny meets tall, blonde Kelly. This confirms his fear that he has made a serious mistake and he decides he wants to be with Kelly instead.
VIBE
This film feels like a deeply uncomfortable, yet darkly funny, look at impulsive decisions and the immediate, crushing weight of regret. It’s a cringe-fest that exposes the worst of human nature with a distinctly 70s flavor.
