Reviews for Kindergarten Cop
Top CriticIf Reitman's film gets closer than most to covering the bases, there remain huge gaps in plausibility and a romantic subplot any ten-year-old could tell you is just plain icky.

Actually fairly entertaining, buoyed by Schwarzenegger's self-deprecating charm and easy chemistry with his capable costar, Pamela Reed, and the hammiest bunch of tykes ever assembled for a movie.

A mish-mash of violence, psycho-drama and lukewarm kiddie comedy.

In Kindergarten Cop, he plays off the Schwarzenegger image more gleefully and successfully than ever before.

A nice, funny, lightweight, non-filling, entertaining film, perfect for the holiday season.
