Edward Guthmann San Francisco Chronicle Rated: 1/4 Jan 1, 2000 Full Review Russell Smith Austin Chronicle Rated: 3.5/5 Jan 1, 2000 Full Review Stephen Holden New York Times If the movie suffers from some awkward plotting, its band of self-styled outsiders... are alive in all their gawky floundering sincerity. And the performances, especially Ms. Ryan's ominous Suzy, have a wonderfully lived-in spontaneity. Jan 1, 2000 Full Review Cathay Che The Advocate Despite its setting in the Seattle music scene and its righteous send-ups of riot-grrrl civil disobedience, Slaves feels forced and contrived from start to finish. Jun 1, 2022 Full Review David Noh Film Journal International This is all fairly excruciating. Jul 11, 2007 Full Review Emanuel Levy EmanuelLevy.Com Rated: 2/5 Jul 26, 2005 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member This is the most annoying, self indulgent piece of crap ever filmed. This film tries to capture the Seattle music scene of the 90s and misses the target BIG TIME!! Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Read all reviews
