Top CriticThis leads to all manner of trivial, pseudo-comic shenanigans, but not to any insight, comic or otherwise, into the emotional realities of father-daughter relationships.
08/06/07
Despite some funny scenes, the sitcomish treatment of a father's anxiety over his teenage daughter's budding sexuality is mostly shallow and uneven.

Top CriticOne of the very worst films of 1989.

It is an extended version of familiar, bland sitcom situations.

Top CriticLeering and tacky, yet annoyingly chaste at the same time. Should have remained the TV-movie it was meant to be.

This is the kind of film that makes me wish we could simply erase the 1980's.

It's an irksome, one-dimensional sitcom with smut.
01/01/00
She's Out of Control is simultaneously so bizarre and so banal that it's a first: the first movie fabricated entirely from sitcom cliches and plastic lifestyles, without reference to any known plane of reality.
