Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Neither the best nor the worst, Operation Condor makes for a slap-happy medium
The point of the movie is the fight scenes, and they're impressive, as is the car chase, one of the funniest, most inventive in recent memory.
Another exhilarating, jaw-dropping romp.
Flawed or not, it would be churlish not to appreciate Operation Condor's Keatonesque plasticity.
