Critic Reviews
-
Stephen Holden, New York Times
The lifeless music and dance sequences in which the rapper performs with his crew have the feel of low-budget video clips that have been inserted almost by mistake.
-
Richard Harrington, Washington Post
Having established that he can't rap or dance, Vanilla Ice now adds acting to his resume -- call it the tri-imperfecta of pop.
-
, TV Guide's Movie Guide
Favorite lines: "Drop that zero and get with the hero ... You live your life for someone else -- you ain't livin' ..."
-
Scott Weinberg, eFilmCritic.com
This one is absolutely pricless in its awfulness.
-
Luke Y. Thompson, New Times
The most brilliantly insane pop-star movie ever, lensed by Spielberg regular Janusz Kaminski and loaded with stylistic strangeness. Ice Rules!
