Top Critics Reviews
fresh:
I still don't understand why Mr. McBride and Mr. Carson elected to do the film but, considering the more obvious possible pitfalls, they could have done a lot worse. That is meant to be praise.

fresh:
The result is a stylistic exercise without any genuine human concerns we can identify with -- and yet, an exercise that does have a command of its style, is good-looking, fun to watch, and develops a certain morbid humor.
– Roger Ebert,

rotten:
The attitudes on display are so distanced and derivative that the picture still seems to have no life or identity of its own.

fresh:
A wanton, playful film, belying the stated despair by its boiling energy.
