	Author	Review
United Kingdom	Peter Bradshaw The Guardian	"This movie’s not unlikable, but the action and comedy are under par (...) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEG
United States	Phil de Semlyen Time Out	"The ponderous, Guy Ritchie-on-Ambien direction and hammy characters make it all a slog (…) Rating: ★ (out of 5)"	NEG
Ireland	Donald Clarke Irish Times	"The art heist is muddled and implausible (...) The dated ambience calls up thoughts of the 1970s kids show 'Here Come the Double Deckers' (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEG
Ireland	John Byrne RTÉ	"It’s an enjoyable trip through a classic tale, with enough twists and artful dodges to keep you entertained (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	Guy Lodge Variety	"Martin Owen throws all the graffiti and parkour he can muster at the screen in a limp 21st-century caper that won't leave viewers asking for some more."	NEG
Ireland	Donald Clarke Irish Times	"A pathetic – if mildly charming – attempt to connect with the kids by flogging them popular culture from a time before they were born"	NEG
