Reviews
James Berardinelli wrote on ReelViews that the film was "excruciatingly stupid". Only the “energetic” direction by Kevin Hooks and the screen presence of Laurence Fishburne would make the film “viewable”. Stephen Baldwin played "appropriate", Salma Hayek appeared "attractive", but Fishburne attracts the attention.
Roger Ebert described the film in the Chicago Sun-Times on July 19, 1996 as "brainless". The film borrows numerous ideas from the other films and doesn't even obscure them. Ebert criticized the dialogues, but praised the portrayals by Laurence Fishburne and Stephen Baldwin.
The lexicon of international films said: “Both the plot and the drawing of figures are shaped by common clichés. Only the actors bring a little life to the sterile events. "
