 "GamePro" described it as a decent though unexceptional side-scroller.They cited the game's faithful recreation of the scenery and enemies of the films as its strongest point, but found that the graphics are inconsistent, the music is excellent but stays the same through most of the game, and the stages are far too easy.The four reviewers of "Electronic Gaming Monthly" contradicted this, saying that the game is extremely challenging, with two of them adding that it suffers from frequent unavoidable hits.
