  I had a feeling that I'd seen it before. It's one of those films that you either like or don't. I quite enjoyed the comedy and the actual story line... read more »

  Thank god for Jack
  
  Far from being a comedic work of art the appeal of this film, and it's sequel, is mostly nostalgic, rather than a burning desire to see, some fifteen years ... read more »

  Better than most TV
  
  Not a blockbuster, but still an enjoyable film to watch when there's nothing on but Eastenders or reality TV. Jack Palance is the real star, but ... read more »

  Cheesy but still fun
  
  It's not hilarious, but can be pretty funny, and the characters can be annoying at times..but its still pretty good. Worth a watch.
