Bruce Campbell lends his patented brand of tongue-in-cheekiness to this high-energy action comedy as Jack Stiles, a roguish adventurer who serves as a secret agent for President Thomas Jefferson in 1801. Accompanied by his sexy English partner, Emilia Rothschild, Jack focuses most of his attention on foiling Napoleon's plans for world conquest. Gov. Croque runs the French island of Palau Palau, where Emilia has an export business and a secret laboratory. Croque's brother, Napoleon himself, is portrayed as being even more vertically challenged than usual, while a talking parrot (in uniform) named Jean-Claude frequently passes along vital information to Jack and Emilia.

3/4
Packed with wittily hang-loose dialogue, fast-paced derring-do and an abiding affection for rambunctious B-movie attitude. Go to Full Review David Bianculli New York Daily News 09/25/2019
2.5/4
The pilot relies more on [Bruce] Campbell's easy charm than anything else, though [Angela] Dotchin may be featured more prominently in future installments. Go to Full Review Laura Fries Variety 09/25/2019
[Bruce] Campbell... has a knack for comedy and embraces the role of Jack Stiles, a colonial era undercover agent, with just the right amount of whimsy and sarcasm. Go to Full Review Terry Kelleher People Magazine 09/25/2019
Jack of All Trades tries with intermittent success to cross the old Wild Wild West with a Mel Brooks romp... Such silliness never hurt anyone. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
