Reviews

Boston Globe -
The jokes are as fresh as rotten eggs and the direction stoops to the occasion.

|
Chicago Tribune -
A breakthrough for karate comedy king Chan, but not necessarily the kind we've all been waiting and hoping for. It's an ultra-digitized DreamWorks show crammed with elaborate special effects, the kind that physical-stunt specialist Chan has always avoided.

ReelViews -
You know you're in trouble when 50% of the running length is devoted to plot exposition, and the movie still doesn't make any sense.

Philadelphia Inquirer -
It's a fun gimmick -- the sartorial equivalent of those red shoes in the fairy tale that made an ordinary girl dance like Terpsichore -- if not an altogether fun movie.

Portland Oregonian -
In The Tuxedo, ridiculously, Chan's just a suit. A suit walking Jennifer Love Hewitt's breasts around. Chan deserves better.
