Critics Consensus

Fast Food, Fast Women tries too hard to be kooky and charming.

Steven Rea

Philadelphia Inquirer

Nothing runs very deep, or very diverting ... in this overplayed, underwritten slice of (love-)life.

Tries hard to be charming, but succeeds only occasionally.

Audience-insulting. Our heroine has faced no difficulty, learned nothing, earned nothing, but she has a lovely fairy-tale ending that's supposed to make us leave the theater happy.

Rated: 0.5/4

Despite some lovely moments ... Fast Food Fast Women operates like a sitcom.

I think that this movie was fun, honest, flawed, and atypical. I thought Anna Thompson was delightful and sexy.
