 Code Name: The Cleaner , starring Cedric the Entertainer, is being swept up and trashed by most critics. John Anderson in Newsday calls it, "the Motel 6 of comedies, the Taco Bell of refined taste and, in terms of Cedric's career, could have come with a half moon on the door." Elizabeth Weitzman in the New York Daily News begins her review by remarking, "Yep, it's January ... the month when a movie's end-credit outtakes are guaranteed to be funnier than any scene from the actual film." One of the better reviews for the movie comes from Kyle Smith in the New York Post, who remarks that the movie "isn't as bad as you'd think (and New Line Cinema has my permission to use that quotation in their ads)." |
