Two low-level American crooks get caught up with the mob and are forced to deliver $50,000 to Australia, where they match wits with a kangaroo (who appears to have an intellectual edge on his pursuers). And the problem? $50.000 is in the jacket they put on the wild kangaroo.

Aussie-set comic fiasco.

It's 89 minutes of pure agony without a laugh in sight.

Likable but negligible.

Producer Jerry Bruckheimer has an unparalleled knack for assembling Z-grade talent, particularly when operating in family-fun mode.

Oh, how I wish I didn't know 'Jack'.

It's a thin, tedious caper only notable for its impressive Outback locations and a cameo from Christopher Walken that proves the word 'no' isn't in his vocabulary.

Brainless and inane, this is for undemanding kids only.
August 07, 2008
A ragged comedy that features much more lame slapstick action than bouncing beast.
September 06, 2003
No one seems to have any idea whether this is an action movie, a comedy, a kid's movie or perhaps a bizarre experiment in kangaroo torture.

Parents beware: this film is too crude, violent and offensive for younger viewers.
January 17, 2003
It's clear it was intended to cash in with audiences of all ages, but the antics are distinctly childish, while the romance is sexually suggestive.
