Simon Sez no matter how starved you are for something to watch, there has to be a better option than this dreadfully misguided action thriller.

Owen Gleiberman Entertainment Weekly Rated: D- Sep 7, 2011 Full Review Entertainment Weekly This cockamamy action flick is excruciatingly formulaic -- brimming with spy movie cliches but devoid of the genre's fun, upper-class pretensions. Rated: D- Aug 3, 2009 Full Review Nathan Rabin AV Club Dennis Rodman may be a great rebounder, but as a pop-culture icon, he's a one-trick pony. Aug 3, 2009 Full Review Daniel Barnes Dare Daniel A superspy action-comedy too brain-dead to even qualify as a James Bond knockoff. Rated: 1/5 Mar 26, 2020 Full Review Maitland McDonagh TV Guide This on-the-cheap action thriller appears to exist purely as a showcase for the limited talents of self-created caricature Dennis Rodman, who in turn clearly needs to exploit himself while the exploiting is good. Rated: 1/4 Aug 3, 2009 Full Review Chris Gore Film Threat It's as painful to watch as Rodman's star-posturing interviews. Rated: 0.5/5 Dec 6, 2005 Full Review Read all reviews

Steve D Unbelievably bad but not because of Rodman. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 09/23/23 Full Review Audience Member "Simon Sez" no matter how starved you are for something to watch, there has to be a better option than this dreadfully misguided action thriller. Bring in The Flamin' Medallion Of True Terrible-Ness. Characters: 0/5 Story: 0/5 Acting: 0/5 Special Effects: 0/5 Direction: 0/5 Cinematography: 0/5 Soundtrack: 0/5 Overall: 0/5 Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member OH, JESUS F***! This movie should have never been made. No matter how starved you are for somethin' to watch, there's gotta be a better option than this flop. For starters, Dennis Rodman may be good at basketball, but on film, he's just a one-trick pony. And if he actually made a profit, Rodman ain't gettin' nothin'. After a token fast break in theaters, "Simon Sez" just dribbled over to video stores. But Simon says "Avoid this misguided 'Die Hard' knock-off." For experts, just avoid this. IMO, everyone, and I mean EVERYONE, should avoid this ultra depressed thriller that tries, and fails, to be James Bond. You want spy films? Watch 007 movies, nothin' wrong with that. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member another so bad it's good classic Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member This is so colossally awful you'd think it was one of those "films within a film" that's intentionally supposed to look awful. Dennis Rodman is so bad it sounds like English is not his first language. A complete failure across the board. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Audience Member It's official: This is the worst 1990s movie I've ever seen. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Read all reviews
