nick s For a low budget movie this was a pretty good effort. Not sure why this gets bagged so much by other reviewers. I thought the acting was fine. A few story elements could have been better, but I can appreciate the director was trying to do something different. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/01/24 Full Review Audience Member Plenty of amusing homosexual undertones in the first half an hour, weary melodrama throughout, and yet a suprisingly moving finale... It's hard to know what to make of The Girl in Lovers Lane. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Audience Member Ok, so I wouldn't call The Girl in Lovers Lane a taut thriller or an interesting movie, by any means. The movie actually doesn't get good until the last twenty minutes or so, and even then, it's very fleeting. As a Roger Corman-directed movie, I can't say I'm surprised by its quality, or lack thereof. It's mostly boring and plays on too many bad boy-type movies of the time. I kept thinking of things like A Streetcar Named Desire, The Night Hunter or anything starring James Dean, really. Thankfully the Mystery Science Theater 3000 crew make it a little more entertaining, but not really by much. I'd say you're not missing anything if you skip it, but if you're interested in early Roger Corman, I'd say give it a shot. Just don't expect much. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member It has some decent characters and scenes, but offers very little interest and can be quite boring at times, but it's worth to check out on MST3K. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member Not bad when I wasn't totally bored out of my mind, but could have been better paced (I guess) and the acting and staging were--par for the course in most MST3K movies--terrible. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member oh, big stupid and his hijinks. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Read all reviews
