There are funny moments ... but the film grows progressively more dispirited.

Overview
After accidentally witnessing a mafia hit in the Windy City, gal pals Connie and Carla skip town for L.A., where they go way undercover as singers working the city's dinner theater circuit ... disguised as drag queens. Now, it's not enough that they become big hits on the scene; things get extra-weird when Connie meets Jeff -- a guy she'd like to be a woman with.

... just awful.

Isn't really a movie but a blatant girls' night out vehicle.

It may not be subtle, but, like drag itself, Connie and Carla affords a few corny, if artless, pleasures.

Connie And Carla never manages to rise above the airport-lounge aesthetic of its title characters.
Geoff Pevere, Toronto Star
