Essentially a feature-length sitcom, She's Out of Control specializes not in psychology but in snappy patter.
Carrie Rickey, Philadelphia Inquirer
Rotten
Despite some funny scenes, the sitcomish treatment of a father's anxiety over his teenage daughter's budding sexuality is mostly shallow and uneven.

Rotten
Dragoti's dire, dishonest, seldom humorous social comedy has all the nauseating hallmarks of a big-budget sitcom.
Wally Hammond, Time Out
Rotten
It is an extended version of familiar, bland sitcom situations.
