If... Martin Lawrence and Adam Sandler [were] in the same movie, it might... create an anti-comedy field so strong that both their careers would be sucked into the vortex...

Someone has to save us from Lawrence's onslaught of cinematic dross.
January 18, 2003
A lame blend of comedy and action in which both credibility and laughs are blown to smithereens.

It's too bad Martin already made What's the Worst That Could Happen? The title really fits this one.
January 17, 2003

If rampant misogyny and racism sound like a laugh riot, by all means see National Security, a 'comedy' so aggressively unpleasant that it's worthy of squirms.

Put your hands up and back away from this rent-a-flop.
September 06, 2003
A patently offensive, racist and repulsive waste of celluloid, an affront to blacks, whites and human beings in general.
January 20, 2003
Despite some tasty contributions from Lawrence and Zahn, too much of National Security has the bland flavor of microwaved leftovers.
December 26, 2010
Indistinguishable dumb action comedy.
