Female Trouble Ratings & Reviews
The New Yorker
Richard Brody
The resulting feast of sex, violence, cruelty, and frivolity mocks sentimental notions of family, work, and love, and turns the egomaniacal furies of pop culture inside out.
The Movie Sleuth
Michelle Kisner
A healthy appreciation of both low and high art gives one a balanced perspective that can enhance the understanding of both aspects... Female Trouble uses this concept of the duality of ugliness and beauty in the characterization of Dawn.
FanboyNation.com
Sean Mulvihill
Further cementing John Waters' legacy as that rare filmmaker who can weave between exploitative trash and high art.
Film Inquiry
Sophia Cowley
If you are looking for a film to unearth your deepest, most subconscious fears-and to stretch the boundaries of your comfort zone-then Female Trouble is for you.
EmanuelLevy.Com
Emanuel Levy
The Pop of Trash's follow-up to Pink Flamingos is a more hilarious, shocking and poignant feature, with Divine in top form.
Rob's Movie Vault
Rob Gonsalves
How does one follow up a legendary affront to decency? In John Waters' case, he moved on.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
There's nothing divine about this earthly piece of trash.
DVD Verdict
Bill Gibron
Combined with...Waters' own private peculiarities, Female Trouble stands along side Pink Flamingos as a sure sign of this director's depth and talent.
eFilmCritic.com
Greg Muskewitz
For John Waters purists, this will be upheld as the real thing, but for most others, the licentious social commentary will only disgust or shock.
Q Network Film Desk
James Kendrick
best seen as an early stab at satirizing the media and the overwhelming hype that is lavished on high-profile criminals
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
Ken Hanke
Best seen in small doses. Waters at his most outrageous
Dallas Morning News
Gary Dowell
One of John Waters' best and most notorious movies.
Oregonian
Kim Morgan
A wonderfully wicked film celebrating two things the director has always found fascinating: crime and beauty.
New Times
David Ehrenstein
How do you follow-up Pink Flamingos? Not with a work that tries to outdo that classic gross-out comedy, but rather by moving in another direction entirely that's just as subversive, if not more so.
