External critics' reviews
Variety Joe Leydon
More than passably amusing. more
The Hollywood Reporter Sheri Linden
A winningly restrained lead performance by Tommy Lee Jones, who also exec produced, isn't enough to put the film on the boxoffice scoreboard. more
Chicago Tribune Robert K. Elder
A sweetly benign comedy that allows the actor (Jones) to lampoon his tough guy image honed in "The Fugitive" and "U.S. Marshals." more
San Francisco Chronicle Mick LaSalle
uUninspired, unnecessary and formulaic. more
Boston Globe Wesley Morris
So light it should wind up on the ''diet" shelf of the video store. more
Entertainment Weekly Lisa Schwarzbaum
Walking the path grooved by such stone-faced confreres as De Niro and Schwarzenegger (and following up on his own more successful self-parody in "Men in Black"), Jones positions himself as a Man in a Stetson. more
L.A. Weekly Chuck Wilson
Stuck with flat material and a star more adept at responding to humor than generating it, director Stephen Herek, in a vain attempt to generate laughs, enlists Cedric the Entertainer, as a convict-turned-preacher. more
Village Voice Chris Tamarri
The movie's not so much bad as it is chillingly uninventive. more
Los Angeles Times Kevin Crust
God-natured comedy. more
TV Guide Ken Fox
And if you can't figure out who is the minute he first appears, you've either seen too few movies with mind-numbingly predictable plots or you've seen far too many. more
