Baywatch Movie Reviews
The overall rating for the movie has been negative with critics proclaiming that the movie has very few laughs and poor action sequences to keep the viewers engages. The over dependence on adult humor comes across as juvenile and won’t earn many fans either.
“It’s a shame. The cast is capable, and a meta-examination of “Baywatch” should have produced something sharper.” ~ Reed Tucker, New York Post
“Imagining Johnson and genetically gifted co-stars in swimsuits is all it took to pitch Baywatch. Director Seth Gordon and six writers didn’t come up with much beyond that.” ~ Steve Persall, Tampa Bay Times
