The acting is so bad that apparently none of the performers ever got another job in the movies, and the costumes in Ben Hur seem less dated that those on display here.

Richard Harrington, Washington Post

A terrific example of efficient, resourceful filmmaking, and its depiction of urban ills is, if anything, all too prophetic.

Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times
Rotten

To watch Switchblade Sisters is to visit a never-never land of shopworn media images colliding in a tabloid high school of the mind.

Stephen Holden, New York Times

Sublime, exploitative camp.

Desson Thomson, Washington Post
Rotten

Just good enough to make it understandable why someone else might really like it. And it's just bad enough to make you wonder about such a person.

Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle
