Seattle Post-Intelligencer
Confidently directed and elegantly designed, this smart drama is sensitive, sympathetic and refreshingly free of glib moralizing. - 50
Entertainment Weekly
Dudsville. - 50
San Francisco Chronicle
Great trash, one of those mediocre movies that in its own crass way is more enjoyable than most things that get nominated for Oscars. - 40
TV Guide Magazine
The film isn't even enjoyably sleazy: It's just dumb and tacky. - 38
Boston Globe
Tawdry, trashy yawn-fest that makes the viewer long for the days when bad girls were dangerous dames with sultry style. - 10
The New York Times
A preposterous, prurient whodunit. - 10
Variety
Obvious and exploitative even by low-bar youthpic standards. - 0
