Editorial Reviews

The critics have panned this movie, but I say..... LIGHTEN UP. This is pure slapstick and a send up on so many bad guy/good guy/western/drug dealin' scenarios. Paul Rodriguez and Tommy Chong could have given each other a run for their money in the smuggling role. If you have a funny bone, this farce should give it a good tickle.

1.0 out of 5 stars Worthless, worthless, worthless., November 30, 2004

I felt compelled to comment after I saw the positive review here. This can in no way be considered good, funny or even mildly amusing. Most of the "name" actors look embarrased with the notable exception of Modine, who gives his all in a pointless performance. I have no idea how any of the actors were persuaded to join this sinking ship, but it's painful to watch and I wouldn't waste my time or money on this dud.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good movie, bad DVD!, April 21, 2003

This review is from: The Shipment (DVD)

This is a great film. It is very funny, but the dvd has really no features at all (trailer, scene selections). they could've made this dvd great. All the actors are great in the movie (especially Elizabeth Berkley!). So, buy the movie...but do not expect to get a great dvd. That is why Igave this 4 stars, because of the dvd.
