Critics' Reviews

LOS ANGELES TIMES: Kevin Thomas
Has sufficient mayhem to please Diesel's action fans while allowing the star to reach out to family audiences.Read Full Review »

USA Today: Mike Clark
Low on Diesel fuel, though probably amusing enough if you're part of the intended demographic, which appears to be the age group that likes to stick fingers up noses.Read Full Review »

The New York Times: Janet Maslin
Mr. Diesel could not have succeeded as a genre-switcher without the proven television talents of the film's able ensemble.Read Full Review »

Philadelphia Inquirer: Gary Thompson
It's the sort of stuff younger viewers will love.Read Full Review »

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES: Roger Ebert

Boston Globe: Ty Burr
JUST worth your children's time, and hardly worth yours.Read Full Review »

ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: Owen Gleiberman
A yawn-by-numbers romper-room dud.Read Full Review »

Village Voice: Laura Sinagra
Disney misfire.Read Full Review »

Washington Post: Desson Thomson
With no real comedy to enjoy, it's torture to watch Diesel undergo a predictable change from emotionless soldier to loving family man. Makes you want to spit out your pacifier in disgust.Read Full Review »
