New York Post
It isn't particularly subtle or original. But it's a good-natured late-summer romp fueled by Lawrence's manic shtick. - 75
San Francisco Chronicle
Apart from Lawrence's goofing, Blue Streak isn't much of a movie. - 75
New York Daily News
The plot is formula all the way, but Lawrence has found a way to incorporate the physical techniques of the great silent stars with his standup comic's arsenal, and it's a pleasure to watch him at work. - 60
Village Voice
The contortional physical shtick familiar from Lawrence's sitcom, laden with a dollop of Three Stooges violence, should keep the boys happy. - 50
The New York Times
The buoyancy is only intermittent. - 50
Miami Herald
The story is stale, action uninspired, pacing lackadaisical. The whole production looks a little cut-rate, too. - 40
Chicago Reader
The usual valorizing of guns and vigilante justice and tedious action sequences to begin and end the picture. - 40
Time
Not a bad concept, and Martin Lawrence is appealing. Unfortunately, the writers have no gift for comic writing.
