Critic Reviews

  • Kevin Carr, 7M Pictures

    Stinky attempt to recapture the magic of "Airplane."

  • Oz, Hollywood Bitchslap

    Every moment of laughter is punctuated by the loud thud of the next joke. Mohr deserves more than this hackneyed screenplay.

    Another stupid comedy.

    This is supposed to be a spoof of "The Godfather", other mafia-based movies, & some other film with with Robert DeNiro. Only, it's on the level of 'so retarded, its funny'. This movie WAS retarded, but it was worth my time wasting on, & I had some… More
