- Critics' reviews
-
-
"Lewd, crude and occasionally too brutal to take, it's also gorgeous, heartfelt."
-
"A noisy, amateurish mess that doesn't work on any level"
-
"Scott makes it easy to overlook the conventionality beneath his sometimes overdone but almost always enjoyable combination of atmosphere and propulsivenes"
-
"Watchable in a facile, trashy way"
-
"Everything is stunningly photographed by John Mathieson, but to paraphrase Gertrude Stein, a cockroach is a cockroach is a cockroach."
