Colin Fraser, FILMINK (Australia)
It's a dirty and messy firecracker of a film, but one that's directed with thrill and skill.

Margaret Pomeranz, At the Movies (Australia)

David Stratton, At the Movies (Australia)
The three leads are a bit on the bland side but perhaps that's the way California potheads are. Del Toro and Travolta are terrific in their more interesting roles.
