Leave your thoughts about She's Out of Control.
| Los Angeles TimesMichael WilmingtonThey’ve made a sometimes funny, mostly media-referential movie without much real life; a high-tech, high-pro job that has a glamor-robot feel. |
| EmpireJack YeovilIt's watchable enough in a nothing-better-to-do sort of way, but comparison with a contemporary movie, say, Uncle Buck, shows just how thin it really is. |
| Washington PostRita KempleyAn inspid comedy about Daddy and Daddy's little girl. It's an irksome, one-dimensional sitcom with smut. |
| Chicago TribuneDave KehrDragoti's dire, dishonest, seldom humorous social comedy has all the nauseating hallmarks of a big-budget sitcom. Can't wait for the John Waters remake. |
| VarietyVariety StaffDespite some funny scenes, the sitcomish treatment of a father's anxiety over his teenage daughter's budding sexuality is mostly shallow and uneven. |
| New York TimesCaryn JamesAnyone who has watched television for even a night will be able to predict every scene in She's Out of Control with total accuracy. It is an extended version of familiar, bland sitcom situations, with Mr. Danza playing a smoother-edged version of his character on the endlessly running hit ''Who's the Boss?'' |
| Chicago Sun-TimesRoger EbertShe's Out of Control is simultaneously so bizarre and so banal that it's a first: the first movie fabricated entirely from sitcom cliches and plastic lifestyles, without reference to any known plane of reality. |
| User ReviewThomas MI watched this when I was 16, was a date movie . I just watched it again for the first time and was better than I remembered it being . A nice reminder of the 80's and the strange movies we watched . |
| User ReviewRuss BAbsolutely love this movie! I loved it when it came out and it is just as good today. I always wanted to have a major makeover like her and well I got it just over years of puberty. LOL |
