Critic Reviews for The Blue Iguana

All Critics (6) | Top Critics (1)

The Blue Iguana is as close to a no-brainer as you can get, and still have anything left on the screen at all. It's a smart-aleck parody of private-eye movies, but it knows as little about private eyes as it does about parodies, and movies.

An unusually irritating misfire...

Reel Film Reviews

It's little more than an interesting failure, a not-so-clever execution of a clever idea.

After a full hour of Iguana I was watching the DVD counter tick by in slow motion.
