United States | San Francisco Chronicle | "A loose, lighthearted romp that's a notch above the usual buddy comedies" | POS |

United States | Rolling Stone | "Something lazy, slow, shallow, stupid, amateurish, unfunny, unsuspenseful, uninformed, unspeakably dull and witlessly written, directed and acted (the special effects suck, too)" | NEG |
