Audience-insulting. Our heroine has faced no difficulty, learned nothing, earned nothing, but she has a lovely fairy-tale ending that's supposed to make us leave the theater happy.

Despite some lovely moments ... Fast Food Fast Women operates like a sitcom.

Just a vain attempt at making a movie about the perils of romance in the modern age.

Nothing runs very deep, or very diverting ... in this overplayed, underwritten slice of (love-)life.

There is warmth and empathy at the core of this movie that can overcome everything about it that's frustrating.

An intimate, small-scale movie in the nicest sense and represents a wholly unanticipated advance on the part of Kollek.
