This film was reviewed by Dr. Barry Hummel of QDREF on 9/3/2011.

Additional Comments: "Once again, Mel Gibson was the film's biggest offender, though the villain played by Derrick O'Conner was a close second. In one scene, Mel Gibson is seen smoking under a 'No Smoking' sign in his office, and continues to do so after being called out on it by his boss. However, the film was scored as 'balanced' because of a comment made by Gibson late in the film. After being shot, and thought to be dead, Gibson makes Danny Glover pull the cigarettes out of his pocket, saying 'Throw those things away... they kill ya'."
