Synopsis

Heartbreakers (2001) is a comedy crime caper you can watch online on iFILM, directed by David Mirkin and starring Sigourney Weaver and Jennifer Love Hewitt as a mother-daughter con duo who've turned wealthy men into a reliable income source. 123 minutes of scams, fake identities, and things going sideways.

Max is the architect — years of experience, ice-cold nerve. Page is the closer — young, irresistible, and capable of wrecking a marriage in under an hour. The routine runs like clockwork: Max marries a rich target, Page seduces him, Max catches them together, divorce lawyer gets the check. Then they move to the next city. Palm Beach is where the system breaks down. Their mark this time is William B. Tensy (Gene Hackman), a chain-smoking tobacco mogul who turns out to be harder to handle than expected, and Page falls for someone she actually likes. Ray Liotta plays Max's furious ex-husband, who has been tracking their trail for a while and doesn't plan to leave them alone.

The ensemble also includes Anne Bancroft, Carrie Fisher, and a very early appearance from Zach Galifianakis. The film balances broad farce with a genuine double-cross structure that keeps the con going longer than anyone expects. Watch Heartbreakers (2001) online on iFILM.
