Kangaroo Jack is a mediocre film, which aims to focus on the whole family, but sometimes misses the mark there too.

The story is not very much. There are some nice jokes in it, but also jokes that are not suitable for the young viewers. The kangaroo is reasonably made although sometimes it is very clear that it is digital. Anthony Anderson is nice at times, but you have to keep his busy demeanor. Jerry O'Connell is never good and here again he scores a big insufficient of his acting skills.

So a mediocre film, which will not stay with me, or it must be the beautiful Estella Warren, but she mainly has the advantage that she has her appearance and therefore people don't pay much attention to her acting performance.

1,5*

Seen it before and unlike most others here I found it quite an entertaining and fun movie. That wasn't so much due to the Kangaroo Jack (which I actually thought was quite bland and irritating) but mainly due to the roles of Jerry O'Connell and Anthony Anderson (especially him) who were fun and quite often comical. The role of Christopher Walken was also quite successful. The story is not much, but the execution was just nicely done and visually the film was also quite good. Whoever was allowed to be there, of course, was the very beautiful and sensual Estella Warren. All in all, just a nice and funny movie that looks nice and doesn't last too long, so it doesn't get really annoying anywhere.

Disappoints me, story is just "you-of-it"

The way the stats stand now (about 2*) I can live with it.
