San Francisco Chronicle - Mick LaSalle
It's shockingly funny - you don't sit there deciding to laugh. Your own laughter catches you by surprise. [14 Apr 1989]

Washington Post - Desson Thomson
Wickedly funny. In fact, Heathers may be the nastiest, cruelest fun you can have without actually having to study law or gird leather products. If movies were food, Heathers would be a cynic's chocolate binge.

USA Today - Mike Clark
It's a tough entry into the tough black-comic genre; don't be surprised if it becomes a classic. [31 March 1989]

Chicago Tribune - Dave Kehr
The sheer outrageousness of its attitude is enough to make Heathers a very welcome relief in a field dominated by sanctimonious and second-hand virtue. [31 March 1989]
70
Time - Richard Corliss
If Michael Lehmann's direction were a bit more astute, the movie could be the classic genre mutation it aims to be: Andy Hardy meets "Badlands." [17 April 1989]
