Reviews

Newsweek - David Ansen
This is an elaborate production, but all the jazzy sets and explosions in the world can't disguise the story's complete lack of urgency.
30
Austin Chronicle - Marc Savlov
This new film version, sad to say, is a hollow shell of the original series.
25
ReelViews - James Berardinelli
This film is an absolute mess.
20
Los Angeles Times - Gene Seymour
So how then do you duplicate a magic aura from 30 years ago? You don't.
20
Chicago Reader - Lisa Alspector
The grasping novelty of the visuals doesn't rival the uncharismatic leads or the hopelessly, unironically banal plot.
