Critic Reviews
-
Ian Buckwalter, NPR
Sweet and well-intentioned, Sassy Pants is difficult to dislike, despite its missteps.
-
Stephen Holden, New York Times
Until "Sassy Pants" loses its nerve and turns somewhat warm and fuzzy, Ms. Sohn maintains tight control of the story of Bethany's liberation from her domestic prison to pursue fashion.
-
Gary Goldstein, Los Angeles Times
Although it attempts a kind of outré pose, the film ultimately proves a too-gentle juggling act that never quite soars.
-
Marsha McCreadie, Village Voice
With its positive gay images, and even a perfectly executed two-step line dance, Sassy Pants is a feel-good movie for girls of both sexes.
-
Dennis Harvey, Variety
Landing between the twee, naturalistic and formulaic, Sassy Pants settles for cute, taking too few gambles to make a more lasting impression.
