What are critics saying?

50

Variety by Derek Elley

A fantastical romp with a buoyant pace, exotic locations, a finger-popping score, appealing leads and spicy cooking demonstrations.

40

TV Guide Magazine by Maitland McDonagh

The film's tone is hard to pin down, especially with the actors dubbed flatly into English.

38

New York Post by Jonathan Foreman

It's hoary and clunky even by the low standards of contemporary thrillers.

30

The New York Times by Stephen Holden

The movie, which is crudely dubbed into English, lacks the raucous, anything-for-a-shock carnival humor of its American prototypes. After it's over, the only question worth asking is whether dear, cozy old Heidelberg can survive the slander.
