Los Angeles Times -
Early on, it's tempting to dismiss the noir pastiche The Girl From the Naked Eye as a warmed-over pulp wannabe, what with the overwrought camera work and clichéd dialogue. But in its moments of sometimes comically violent antagonism, the movie shows some flashes of genre pizazz.

Chicago Sun-Times -
It isn't a great movie, but it looks terrific and makes me look forward to the next film by its director, David Ren. He has a good eye.

Slant Magazine -
The Girl from the Naked Eye has heart, which is more than can be said of some other recent genre throwbacks, but it ultimately makes barely a splash.

New York Post -
So deadpan are the dialogue and narration that it's hard to tell whether the laughs are intentional. What with all the shrieking, dumb bad-girl hookers and the wistful, wounded good-girl hookers, the sexism is so creepy it might be an ironic genre critique. Then again, maybe it's just creepy.

The A.V. Club -
Too bad the film itself is so derivative, it could have been assembled from Robert Rodriguez's discard bin.
