There's something wonderfully fresh almost subversive, really about a film in which teenage girls speak about sex and obsess over it and crave it as openly as boys. In time-honored John Hughes manner, the movie ends on a happy, reassuring note. But for a genre dominated by American movies in which girls are usually prizes or objects of lust, TURN ME ON, DAMMIT! practically feels revolutionary. --Rene Rodriguez, The Denver PostFunny, embarrassing and poignant without ever seeming leering or exploitative. The way salty-sweet comedy TURN ME ON, DAMMIT! treats the hormone-addled turmoil of its 15-year-old heroine Alma (Helene Bergsholm) feels something close to revolutionary. I don't want to overburden this mild-mannered 76-minute Norwegian debut, but it's true. --Alison Wilmore, MovielineFundamentally a wry, affectionate small-town movie, but one that sneaks up on a genuine feminist issue. Boys Alma's age are expected to be sex-obsessed, but a girl who yearns for action is relentlessly stigmatized, even in the context of a supposedly nurturing and tolerant social democracy. Alma escapes (very briefly) to the bohemian freedom of the big city and scores a modest victory against repression and hypocrisy, but it's one female libertines everywhere (and their companions) can embrace. --Andrew O'Hehir, SalonFunny, embarrassing and poignant without ever seeming leering or exploitative.
