Reviews


75
Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert
The film is a display of traditional movie craftsmanship, especially at the level of the screenplay, which respects the characters and story and doesn't simply use them for dialogue breaks between action sequences.
75
Christian Science Monitor - David Sterritt
Proudly old-fashioned in every way except the often excessive violence that director Martin Campbell splashes across the screen.
75
ReelViews - James Berardinelli
A great deal of excitement and adventure, all brought to the screen by using a somewhat irreverent tone that keeps the mood light without trivializing the characters.
70
TV Guide Magazine - Maitland McDonagh
Old-fashioned fun that goes down as smoothly as a vintage cocktail.
50
Chicago Tribune - Michael Wilmington
Spectacular, fast, never boring. But it's also one of the more disappointing movies I've seen recently.
