- Ebert did not like the film and gave it one and a half stars, which the hosts call bonkers for a movie he seemingly should have liked.
- He reportedly liked Cocktail more, called the film confusing and uninteresting, wrote that to the degree he understood it he did not care, and put it on his most-hated films list.
- A host wonders whether Ebert had fatigue with Tarantino imitations full of guns and swearing and used this review to bury the genre.
- The score surprises the hosts because Ebert normally likes well-structured characters and this is a very classical movie.
