Reviews
Roger Ebert wrote in the Chicago Sun-Times on May 12, 1989 that director Julien Temple had based the visual style of the film on The Little Horror Shop and on the works of John Waters . He wrote that he had fun watching the film.
The lexicon of international films said: “Poppy mixture of science fiction film, musical and love story, whose partly harmless, partly dirty gags are purely an end in themselves. A comedy that lacks any ironic distance and at most is a bit of pleasure thanks to the brightly colored optical processing in CinemaScope. "
