He is great, and he is white, but he's no ninja. Rock, who makes a career out of calculated incredulity, has ample fodder here. [More]

Disappointing Farley vehicle. Not much humor, and the action isn't much.

Chris Farley may not have been the world's most versatile comedian, but he sure as heck deserved better material than THIS!

Farley, a real lightweight compared to such late, great predecessors John Belushi and John Candy, brings none of Belushi's edgy intelligence, nor Candy's gentle pathos to this comic caricature.

A satisfying and sturdy vehicle for Farley that ought to please his fans, youngsters especially.

It's hard to believe that anything could make a moviegoer miss the presence of the always-obnoxious David Spade, but this stinker, Farley's first starring film without his erstwhile comedy partner, manages to do the trick.
