Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
Another grandiose, hyperactive crock, full of lame jokes and gorgeous, stupefying images.

rotten:
All the necessary exposition prevents the picture from rising above your generic sand 'n' sandal adventure.

rotten:
Russell lacks the visual panache, the comic touch, and perhaps the budget of Sommers's title-bout features.
– Ed Park,
