Critic Reviews
-
Richard Schickel, TIME Magazine
It would be nice to see Connery doing something intrinsically interesting instead of trying to make something inherently dull entertaining. And it would be good to see Snipes cut loose more than he is able to here.

David Ansen, Newsweek
As the plot grows more intricate, strangely the tension dissipates, until finally the movie just seems to run out of breath.
-
Todd McCarthy, Variety
When working in genre territory before, the idiosyncratic Kaufman has shown a marked tendency to debunk or subvert conventions. Playing it straight here, he brings little to the table.
-
Jonathan Rosenbaum, Chicago Reader
I found it pretty entertaining, as well as provocative in some of its comments about contemporary life.
-
Vincent Canby, New York Times
It directs attention not to the internal reasons for America's economic problems, but to inscrutable, generalized, unknown others from abroad, whose yellow skins and strange manners announce their evil purposes as much as their unfair trade practices.
