Critic Reviews

  • Chuck O'Leary, FulvueDrive-in.com

    Burt Reynolds is a lot of fun here in his ornery-guy-with-a-soft-heart mode.

  • Eric D. Snider, EricDSnider.com

    It was made either by people who were never children, or who have forgotten what it was like to be one.

    I thought this movie was great. Obviously, it'd never happen, but it's a fun movie too watch. I loved it when I was little.
