Like the designer suits Driver wears despite her character's meager earnings, High Heels and Low Lifes isn't about reality; it's playing dress- up.
Carla Meyer, San Francisco Chronicle
Rotten
There are, however, no highs in High Heels and Low Lifes. Just lows.
Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times
Fresh
A mostly smart attempt to resurrect Ealing Studios-style hijinks.
Kevin Maynard, Mr. Showbiz
Fresh
A refreshingly engaging British movie that isn't afraid to go all out for laughs and thrills, leaving its social conscience behind.
