---|---|---|---|---|
"Watching the movie is like sitting through a film in front of a row of wisecracking cult movie fans. It's also sometimes very funny." | ||||
"A brilliantly written black comedy in the tradition of 'To Die For' and 'Flirting With Disaster'" | ||||
"Very much like sex. On second thought, make that bad sex. Actually, sexual assault is more like it" | ||||
"The kind of daring feature that doesn't open every Friday at the local multiplex; its frank, sometimes politically incorrect approach towards the act and politics of sex is refreshing" | ||||
"Consistently clever without ever being funny. The film is so in love with its own carefully calibrated outrageousness that it doesn't bother to give its characters any depth" | ||||
"What redeems the film's surface bitterness are sharp observations, laceratingly funny dialogue and something Dedee claims to find especially loathsome: a secret heart of gold" |
