Top CriticThe film's fake feminist message is at its most cyncial: Real men are repulsive but androids (created by women) are sweet, sensitive, and open-minded.

One of the more enjoyable of the indie comedies of the 80s, as much a product of its time as Woodstock was of its own.

A smart, quick witted, wicked and genuinely funny movie.
