Roger Ebert gave the movie two stars, saying, "I left the movie wondering why the screenplay was even considered filmable. There's nothing compelling about it, nothing original," but he praised Christina Vidal's performance, saying, "She's a bright, no-nonsense type who plants her feet and delivers her lines and looks Fox square in the eye."
In Rita Kempley (from the Washington Post)'s review of the movie, she called it "camp and cutesy all at the same time, like a kiddie-car ride down "Sunset Boulevard" with an aging Gary Coleman behind the wheel."
