Reception
[edit]Katie Walsh of the Los Angeles Times wrote that the film "is all cutesy retro raunchiness without any innovation or comedic payoff", and that "it might have been excusable back in the day, but now it’s just boring."[1]
Joe Leydon of Variety wrote that "the perpetrators of this throwback flotsam have been so diligent in their efforts to replicate the look, tone and smirk of those instantly forgettable trifles, their movie could almost pass for a thirtysomething-year-old feature only recently recovered from a time capsule."[2]
