There's little tension as Reno's character is one of those invincible heroes that we haven't seen much of since the '80s.

I keep renting Jean Reno films and I'm beginning to forget why I started doing so.

| Original Score: 2/5 | May 26, 2004

...as far as action flicks go, you could do worse.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jan 4, 2004

Action star (and fine dramatic actor) Jean Reno has fallen prey to the Action Comedy conceit and the result is the periodically entertaining, generally tiresome Wasabi.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Nov 11, 2003

A moronic action/comedy film.

| Original Score: C- | Nov 9, 2003

A bubbly international cocktail.

The movie fails to live up to the sum of its parts.

Wasabi is one of the best times I've had lately enjoying a movie that has no regard for a plot.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 3, 2003

A fast-paced, glitzy but extremely silly piece.

| Original Score: C | Nov 21, 2002

Been there, done that, liked it much better the first time around - when it was called The Professional.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Nov 15, 2002

The film is a contrivance, as artificial as the video games Japanese teens play in a nightclub sequence, but it's an enjoyable one.

Reno does what he can in a thankless situation, the film ricochets from humor to violence and back again, and Ryoko Hirosue makes us wonder if she is always like that.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Oct 20, 2002

Like being trapped inside a huge video game, where exciting, inane images keep popping past your head and the same illogical things keep happening over and over again.

If you sometimes like to go to the movies to have fun, Wasabi is a good place to start.

| Original Score: A | Oct 12, 2002

As plain and pedestrian as catsup--

Full Review | Oct 8, 2002

One scarcely needs the subtitles to enjoy this colorful action farce.

Full Review | Oct 7, 2002

A lightweight, uneven action comedy that freely mingles French, Japanese and Hollywood cultures.
