Top Critics Reviews
rotten:
By the climax, his truly ambitious, truly flawed film finally disappears into the 'time-space rift' (or whatever) to achieve some sort of cosmic transcendence.

rotten:
One of the most confusing, ridiculous, pretentious and disastrous cinematic train wrecks I've ever seen.

rotten:
By the time the movie rolls into its third hour, it's exhausted most of its comic energy, leaving you disoriented and unable to remember much of what you just saw.

rotten:
Immature, crude, poorly made and a waste of time.

No amount of reworking could salvage what was a misbegotten and unfunny idea to begin with.
