Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Parents beware: this film is too crude, violent and offensive for younger viewers.
Aussie-set comic fiasco.
It's 89 minutes of pure agony without a laugh in sight.
Producer Jerry Bruckheimer has an unparalleled knack for assembling Z-grade talent, particularly when operating in family-fun mode.
