Critical View |
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times: The only possible explanation for the film being released is that there are stars in the cast ... They should speak sternly with their agents. |
2 Reasons to See It |
1. Sex farce + blonde streaks in hair = hot. 2. Reason number one is a real stretch. You can't possibly expect me to come up with another. |
Overall |
He's funny, but critical response has been, basically, that he is the only thing about this movie that is even tolerable. |
