Movie Reviews

Spirituality and Practice - 8/10 by Frederic and Mary Ann BrussatStarts well, but the early comic buoyancy deflates quickly.
Slant Magazine - 8/10 by Sarah D. BuntingIt’s relatively good. Of course, “relatively good” in the mid-‘80s teen-movie genre often means “not unwatchable,” and Secret Admirer doesn’t quite qualify as fresh or unpredictable...But it also has a handful of gratifying moments and nuances you don’t expect from the genre, starting with girls who eat and curse like boys.
The Globe and Mail (Toronto) - 8/10 by Jay ScottSecret Admirer is a cut above the usual teen sex comedy, which is sort of like Caspar Weinberger saying, "Six hundred bucks, sure, but it was a heckuva ashtray."
eFilmCritic.com - 7/10 by Scott WeinbergOnly in a genre that includes Private School and Joy Sticks could Secret Admirer be considered a good movie, but this one's actually got some laughs!
Washington Post - 6/10 by Paul AttanasioDirector David Greenwalt has brought "Secret Admirer" a sense of visual style, some energy and a few good zingers, but the movie (which he cowrote with Jim Kouf) is smothered by the formula.
Chicago Tribune - 5/10 by Gene SiskelEveryone knows that unrequited love can be exquisite, and that`s why it`s a particular shame that ''Secret Admirer'' plays its twin-edged teen romance mostly for laughs. Blown is the opportunity to deal with the issue of what it`s really like to have a crush on someone who does not like you back as much.
Miami Herald - 5/10 by Bill CosfordTo Greenwalt's credit as cowriter, there are funny lines and some situations that held promise. But his direction is early "Brady Bunch," with a daub of Ridley Scott's Chanel commercials for further inspiration...Despite the director, the cast is decent, with Fred Ward of the "Right Stuff" in rare comic form as Lt. Lou Fimple, a vice cop who finds both his wife and his daughter undone on lover's lane.
The New York Times - 3/10 by Janet MaslinThe film's sole ray of sunshine is Fred Ward, who reveals an unexpected flair for comedy in the role of Deborah Ann's father, a police detective with a very hot temper and a vein in his forehead that visibly throbs.
User Review - 10/10 by idhasi hCaught it on early morning CINEMAX, been in love ever since. A-
