San Francisco Chronicle
Curiously enough plays like a 90-minute version of the old television show. That's not necessarily bad. - 30
TV Guide Magazine
No one expects much from movie adaptations of TV shows but complete incoherence and boredom is a bit too much to bear. - 30
Chicago Reader
An exercise in robotic filmmaking. - 30
Newsweek
Bad, but not criminally so. - 20
Salon
One of the most mindless, shamelessly lazy films. - 20
Austin Chronicle
A sketchy, half-baked, stylistically inconsistent movie that scarcely even pretends to care whether it makes sense or not. - 20
Film Threat
Add another one to the scrap heap of trendy, nostalgic, 60's and 70's TV shows reduced to cinematic rubble by the inspiration starved minds in Hollywood. - 10
The New York Times
Torturously boring.
