Critic Reviews

20	Village Voice Nat Johnson The hapless goodfella-in-training is as unsuccessful at fulfilling his uncle's wishes as the star and co-director, Robert Capelli Jr., is at delivering punchlines.
20	TV Guide This amateurish comedy features some amazing sequences shot in Moscow. But everything else about it is second rate.
20	The Hollywood Reporter Frank Scheck Ultimately unable to overcome both its amateurish qualities and its overly familiar elements.
20	Variety Ronnie Scheib Dismally unfunny cross-cultural farce posits stupidity as the universal language.
12	New York Post As if the witless cultural stereotypes weren't bad enough, misogyny is rampant -- bare-breasted women abound, yet the protagonist remains fully clothed while having a bullet removed from his butt.
10	The New York Times Might have generated a laugh or two had it not forced the actors into uncomfortable extremes of caricature.
