Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Rotten
How could an action-adventure film that cost $34 million, most of which clearly went into pyrotechnics, computerized special effects and scenic locations, end up looking cheap, silly and lifeless?
Stephen Holden, New York Times
Rotten
As for Van Peebles, he's quite the ridiculous sight and sound.
Richard Harrington, Washington Post
Rotten
Mostly the film morphs into a block of dullness.
Peter Stack, San Francisco Chronicle
Rotten
Lambert is as uncharismatic as ever, while Van Peebles is as frightening as a wrestler in mock angry mood, and just as ridiculous.
