A pretentiously kookie and laboriously overblown mod farce.

Bosley Crowther, New York Times
Fresh

Brace yourself for some of the most exuberant and disjunctive Pop Art imagery ever put onscreen, including scenes in which the scissors-happy hedonists shred not only objects and each other but the movie itself.

David Edelstein, New York Magazine/Vulture
Fresh

One of the great outpourings of cinematic invention in an age of over-all artistic liberation.

Richard Brody, New Yorker
Rotten

As an allegory it lacks any resonance, as a movie it stinks.

Adrian Turner, Time Out
Fresh

Two zany young teenage girls are the focus of this extremely funny, witty and expertly-fashioned film.
