This ostensibly comedic film contains absolutely no funny moments whatsoever and is basically a war flick that fails to provide any sense of urgency, suspense or concern for the good guys' well-being.

Reviews for All the Queen's Men
Fails to satisfactorily exploit its gender politics, genre thrills or inherent humor.
10/25/02
Not bad enough to qualify as a memorable dud, multinational production nonetheless misses mark on every level.

Top CriticWhat we have here isn't a disaster, exactly, but a very handsomely produced let-down.
10/25/02
Top CriticJaw-droppingly superficial, straining to get by on humor that is not even as daring as John Ritter's glory days on Three's Company.
10/24/02
Top CriticNo review available.

Let's hope -- shall we? -- that the 'true story' by which All the Queen's Men is allegedly "inspired" was a lot funnier and more deftly enacted than what's been cobbled together onscreen.

Top CriticThis one aims for the toilet and scores a direct hit.
10/24/02
Top CriticBad in such a bizarre way that it's almost worth seeing, if only to witness the crazy confluence of purpose and taste.
10/24/02
There are cheesy backdrops, ridiculous action sequences, and many tired jokes about men in heels.
10/25/02
A horrible, 99-minute stink bomb.
10/25/02
Maybe LeBlanc thought, “Hey, the movie about the baseball-playing monkey was worse.”
10/25/02
The pacing is often way off and there are too many bona fide groaners among too few laughs.
10/24/02
A modestly comic, modestly action-oriented World War II adventure that, in terms of authenticity, is one of those films that requires the enemy to never shoot straight.
06/16/02
It seems just a long, convoluted ploy to get men into drag -- period drag, no less.
10/24/02
Top CriticNot only does LeBlanc make one spectacularly ugly-looking broad, but he appears miserable throughout as he swaggers through his scenes.
10/25/02
Top CriticThere is more than one joke about putting the toilet seat down. And that should tell you everything you need to know about All the Queen's Men.
10/26/02
A crass and insulting homage to great films like Some Like It Hot and the John Wayne classics.
10/22/01
A graceless, witless attempt at mating Some Like It Hot with the WWII espionage thriller.
10/22/02
Top CriticThis ludicrous film is predictable at every turn.
