Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
In this clumsy attempt to merge farce with satire, the jokes repeatedly miss the mark.

rotten:
Mostly ... Sonnenfeld mishandles the broad part of the comedic formula, preferring repetition to thematic development.

rotten:
Because the tone is so light, so genial and eager to please, the whole enterprise seems the opposite of prescient. It seems naive, almost delusional.
– Mick LaSalle,

rotten:
Makes for distinctly uneasy viewing, as Big Trouble's massive subtext repeatedly threatens to overwhelm its haphazardly stylized diegesis.

rotten:
... Big Trouble produces only a very few small chuckles.
