Critic Reviews

Derek Adams, Time Out
[Hogan] doesn't take himself too seriously either, which could prove his downfall - that and excruciating movies like this.

Daniel M. Kimmel, Variety
No one goes to see a Hulk Hogan movie for cutting-edge moviemaking, and Mr. Nanny will be no exception.

James Berardinelli, ReelViews

, TV Guide's Movie Guide
Mr. Nanny is of little interest to any audience other than pre-teens.
