Reviews
|
Philadelphia Inquirer -
A wickedly funny, Naked Gun-style parody that conflates old-style private-eye pics with Shaft and, yes, Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer.
|
|
Film Threat -
Writer/director John Kesselman serves up a stylin' live-action spoof that irreverently milks stereotypes and bravely pokes fun at that which is usually sacrosanct.

|
TV Guide Magazine -
You don't have to be Jewish to love Jonathan Kesselman's uneven, profane and occasionally flat-out hilarious parody of vintage blaxploitation pictures, but it helps.
|
|
Variety -
Although amusing as often as not, the material remains more comedy-sketch fodder than a fully developed feature.
|
|
New York Post -
A hit-and-miss affair.
