Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Rotten
Has neither drama or comedy ... or a decent story.
Malcolm Mayhew, Fort Worth Star-Telegram/DFW.com

Slightly better than a poke in the eye.
Bob Longino, Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Rotten
The absence of a compelling villain translates into an absence of excitement.
Nancy Churnin, Dallas Morning News

One can almost hear a droning noise.
