Critic Reviews

  • Rob Gonsalves, eFilmCritic.com

    A profoundly trivial and tasteless affair.

  • Mike McGranaghan, Aisle Seat

    One of the all-time worst. An offense.

  • Dan Lybarger, Nitrate Online

    Chiklis has atoned for his sins here with later roles. This Belushi biopic is monotonous and even racist (Belushi's inept guardian angel is Puerto Rican cab driver).

  • James Sanford, Kalamazoo Gazette

    The word that comes to mind is 'ghastly'
