Reviews

The German film website kino.de said that the “original Irish magical troll Leprechaun” was allowed to relocate his mischief to the glittering metropolis of Nevada in the “shadow of 'Casino', 'Leaving Las Vegas' and 'Showgirls'”, otherwise the makers would “ not much new ”come up. Instead, "once again a sometimes funny, but mostly predictable chase based on the pattern of numbers 1 and 2" would be on the program.

"Despite some rough splatter effects, the set pieces of the horror genre mainly serve as the basis for a surprisingly carefully constructed story that is downright entertaining."
