Boston Globe -
Bloody and bloody funny, and Jackson and Carlyle make the best salt-and-pepper team since Eddie Murphy and Nick Nolte knocked heads in ''48 HRS., '' but ultimately the movie can't find a way out of its own dead end.

|
The Globe and Mail (Toronto) -
A formula flick. And the formula is not 51 times more entertaining than usual. Maybe 1.5, at best.
|

|
Seattle Post-Intelligencer -
Outrageously confident and wearing a kilt through the mayhem, Jackson proves once again that he has few equals in bringing off a broad, over-the-top lead.

TV Guide Magazine -
Cocky, vulgar and very noisy picture.
|
|
|
Village Voice -
Emily Mortimer and Robert Carlyle generate heat as criminal lovers, but most of the cast just engages in embarrassing scenery-gnawing.
