Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Everything here is too mild, too sloppy.
The story has been so poked and prodded and spun around it barely knows how to end.
Boring, unsexy, styleless, sluggish and physically ugly.
Insipid potboiler set against the far more enticing surf and sand of Oahu's North Shore.
