:

Critics' Reviews

50
ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: Owen Gleiberman
It's every bit as nonsensical and overitalicized a mess as ''The Whole Nine Yards.''Read Full Review »
50
USA Today: Mike Clark
Destined to be on DVD by the time 2004 reaches the 50-yard line, Ten is more stale than it is ungodly.Read Full Review »
40
Village Voice: Ben Kenigsberg
An anemic attempt at Coen-style bodies-and-bowling deadpan, The Whole Nine Yards compensated for its comic shortcomings with a casual, uncharacteristically likable performance by Bruce Willis.Read Full Review »
38
Philadelphia Inquirer: Steven Rea
Where the first pic breezed along with gags and gunplay, this forced follow-up is artificial to the hilt - fueled on a kind of trying-too-hard hilarity that makes even good actors look bad.Read Full Review »
30
The New York Times: A.O. Scott
At least it isn't a remake -- though given how slovenly and forced this movie is, maybe that wouldn't have been such a bad idea.Read Full Review »

Washington Post: Mark Jenkins
Will go anywhere for a gag, including into the realms of homophobic, gastrointestinal and erectile dysfunction humor.Read Full Review »
25
CHICAGO SUN-TIMES: Roger Ebert
A fog of gloom lowers over The Whole Ten Yards, as actors who know they're in a turkey try their best to prevail.Read Full Review »
25
Boston Globe: Wesley Morris
Not as desperate, unfunny, and nonsensical as its title. It's worse. Worse than you can imagine. Unless, of course, you've imagined 90-something minutes of bloopers and outtakes that congeal into a story -- much the way a scab is formed.Read Full Review »

LOS ANGELES TIMES: Kevin Crust
Disastrously unfunny sequel.Read Full Review »
10
Washington Post: Ann Hornaday
Leaden, laugh-free, lacking anything resembling a heart, mind or soul.Read Full Review »
