Reviews


50
Chicago Reader - Jonathan Rosenbaum
It doesn't have the polish or the momentum of an Indiana Jones adventure, and isn't too engaging on the plot level, but at least the filmmakers keep it moving with lots of screwball stunts.
40
TV Guide Magazine - Unnamed
This one may be just excessive enough to develop a cult following. It also proved quite popular with German audiences, for reasons we've been unable to fathom.
38
USA Today - Susan Wloszczyna
It ends up choking on a never-ending stream of inept gags... A worst-case scenario of wackiness gone out of whack. [24 May 1991]
25
Chicago Tribune - Unnamed
Boring and banal, overwrought and undercooked, Hudson Hawk is beyond bad. [24 May 1991]
25
San Francisco Chronicle - Mick LaSalle
Just awful… There is probably not one interrupted 60-second stretch in which a line of dialogue doesn't clunk, an action doesn't ring false or an irritating plot turn doesn't present itself. [25 May 1991]
