Roger Ebert

Chicago Sun-Times

The movie itself is, finally, embarrassing. It's embarrassing because Vadim's personal hang-ups don't fit the nature of his material, and so he tries to bend things.

Rated: 2/4

Gone With The Twins

Gathering together the distinguished selection of Hudson, Dickinson, and Savalas for a story so deliciously eccentric is perhaps its greatest success.

Rated: 4/10

Pretty Maids All in a Row simply shares the ineffable vulgarity it portrays.

Were you to take out the sex and nudity, it would be nothing but an incomprehensible load of silliness.

I won't say that Pretty Maids All in a Row is a good film by any traditional measure. It is, however, a genuine curio.

A scalding satire and, all things considered, a remarkably fecund work

Can't say I hate seeing Angie Dickinson doing what she does in this movie. But they should've centered it more around her, and less around the guy. Plus cut out the entire murder detective senario. No one cares.

Weird, freaky movie. Super pervy, dark humor, and extremely questionable that it should ever have been made. Gene Roddenberry, how could you?
