What to Know

Critics Consensus

Martin Lawrence lends his comedic touch, but the movie isn't much more than standard action-comedy fare.

Joseph C martin lawrence is flawed in this role but the whole movie is thief infested and unmemorable. Rated 3/5 Stars • Rated 3 out of 5 stars 06/08/24 Full Review Nishanth K It's a fun 1time watch. Rated 3/5 Stars • Rated 3 out of 5 stars 04/03/24 Full Review Jay P Once again critics on Rotten Tomatoes lack the understanding of what a comedy is supposed.to be. But this film here is one of the best films of this genre. It's.fun and memorable. Rated 4.5/5 Stars • Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/19/24 Full Review Willie V This film was okay. Martin Lawrence tries his best to make the film work with his comedic timing and energy, which is mostly good, but others in the film let him down. The supporting cast feels uninspiring and forgettable. The plot of the film is predictable and stereotypical, making it difficult for the movie to stand out and be memorable within its genre. Despite this, it is still an enjoyable film for a random night's watch. Perhaps the film could have been more interesting if it had been played more seriously. At the end of the day, it is just a fun '90s comedy film that could have been better. Rated 2.5/5 Stars • Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/02/24 Full Review Dimitrios B absolutely hilarious, great plot and amazing ending! Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/26/23 Full Review Sue N Great cast and movie ! Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/25/23 Full Review Read all reviews
