Boston Globe Jay Carr
An exercise in excess, but it's the best of the month's crop of mindless films, if only because it jumps off the screen with acertain pop and playfulness.

This is a high octane ride that starts to leak gas before it even gets going.

An odd mix of seediness, sideburns and even scorpions, the movie nearly matches the Lisa Marie-Michael Jackson marriage for weirdness.

Chicago Sun-Times Roger Ebert
Here's a movie without an ounce of human kindness, a sour and mean-spirited enterprise so desperate to please, it tries to be a yukky comedy and a hard-boiled action picture at the same time.

An overstuffed, underfed numbskull movie.

The New York Times A.O. Scott
This bloated spectacle has all the get-up-and-go of one of the legendary late-era Elvis Presley concerts. The picture feels longer than Presley's career and as irrelevant as he was by the end.

Los Angeles Times Kenneth Turan
One of those movies that makes you want to throw up your hands in despair, disgust, or maybe both.

Wall Street Journal Joe Morgenstern
Nothing but miscalculation from clumsy start to chaotic finish, an action thriller with a cynical, shriveled soul.

What you get is the V trifecta: vile, vicious and violent. Oh, and incoherent and stupid. A mess. A mean-spirited completely worthless film that can never give back the two hours it seizes from you.

I suggest you think of this movie as another bad sausage from the Warner Bros. meat-packing factory. And you should think of this review as a government health warning. Eat this thing at your peril.
