This movie has some of the worst dialogue one can imagine: She: 'What about passion?' He: 'What about support?' She: 'What about betrayal?'
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
Rotten
Once the cat is out of the bag, the movie turns rip-roaring awful in an entirely enjoyable way.
Janet Maslin, New York Times
Rotten
Unfortunately, Hiller doesn't command the intensity of feeling that might have made it emotionally valid, and he doesn't have the awareness of the cultural forces at work in his film that might have made it intellectually respectable.
Dave Kehr, Chicago Reader
