Top Critics Reviews

Leaving aside the galloping misogyny, 'Rock the Kasbah' just isn't remotely funny or smart.

It needs a smarter script. It needs at least two or three perfectly engineered, joke-after-joke sequences. It needs a smart director - did you really do "Wag the Dog," Levinson? - whose idea of political satire goes beyond freshman-year sarcasm.
