Los Angeles Times - Kevin Thomas
Wickedly hilarious. [19 Feb 1999]

Washington Post - Stephen Hunter
[McGowan's] serene psychopathology is the movie's most consistent pleasure, and to see her is to both love and fear her.
38
Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert
A slick production of a lame script, which kills time for most of its middle half-hour. If anyone in the plot had the slightest intelligence, the story would implode.
38
Chicago Tribune - Mark Caro
It's not particularly funny or trenchant, and its portrayal of noxious high school cliques never amounts to more than was shown in "Heathers." [19 Feb 1999]

Variety - Emanuel Levy
The strongest dimensions of this self-conscious but centerless film are four sexy actresses parading in colorful costumes and Amy Vincent's radiant lensing, which makes the picture seem hipper than it is.
