Critic Reviews

Dennis Schwartz, Ozus' World Movie Reviews
The only satisfaction I got out of the bad movie Satisfaction was that I was no worse for wear having to endure such awful tunes.
Scott Weinberg, DVDTalk.com
Justine Bateman keeps on singing throughout this freakishly banal flick, and each time it just gets funnier.
Clint Morris, Moviehole
Moves to a good beat, swimming in fine talent

AJ V

A girl power type movie about a female rock band. It's a pretty good drama/comedy, but it could have gone further than it did drama wise, and it could be funnier comedy wise.
Leo L

A hilarious film of the 80's! Loved Trini A., Justine B., and Julia R.
