Leave your thoughts about Rita, Sue and Bob Too.
| Chicago TribuneDave KehrThis is one of those movies you talk about a lot afterward because the motives of all the characters are so complicated that you're not absolutely sure just who came out ahead. |
| Portland OregonianTed MaharAlthough there are some slow sections, RITA, SUE AND BOB TOO! provides a number of good laughs and also more than a few empathetic winces. |
| Creative LoafingMatt BrunsonThe piece's social jabs are so unassuming that it's easy to simply accept this as a ribald comedy with dark undertones. But the criticism can indeed be located (and endorsed). |
| Chicago ReaderJonathan RosenbaumShot in and around the town of Bradford in long, loping takes, this sprightly comedy, adapted by Andrea Dunbar from her own play, has some of the energy that one associates with the better exploitation films that used to be produced by Roger Corman. |
| Los Angeles TimesSheila BensonThe movie’s tone is light, absurd; its sharper comments lie a little below the waterline. |
| NewsweekDavid AnsenThe movie's sense of humor is brash and shaggy, and Rita does have a couple of fliply delivered comebacks. But on the whole, there's not enough variety or definition to hold your attention. Too much is all on the same pitch. |
| Spirituality and PracticeFrederic and Mary Ann BrussatThe snap, crackle, and pop of Andrea Dunbar's screenplay reveals that sex rarely solves the problems people hope it will. |
