It reveals the previously untapped talent of Mr. Scott (best known for majestically moody action films like ''Alien'', ''Blade Runner'' and ''Black Rain'') for exuberant comedy, and for vibrant American imagery, notwithstanding his English roots. It reimagines the buddy film with such freshness and vigor that the genre seems positively new. It discovers unexpected resources in both its stars, Susan Sarandon and Geena Davis, who are perfectly teamed as the spirited and original title characters.»<ref>http://movies.nytimes.com/movie/review?_r=1&res=9D0CE1DA1F3CF937A15756C0A967958260&oref=slogin</ref> [[Roger Ebert]] roser også filmen, men han har en eneste innvending som gjør at han ikke kaller den perfekt: «the last shot before the titles begin. It's a freeze frame that fades to white, which is fine, except it does so with unseemly haste...  It's unsettling to get involved in a movie that takes 128 minutes to bring you to a payoff that the filmmakers seem to fear.»<ref>{{Kilde www |url=http://rogerebert.suntimes.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/19910101/REVIEWS/40823002/1023 |tittel=Arkivert kopi |besøksdato=2009-10-03 |arkiv-dato=2009-08-04 |arkiv-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090804084412/http://rogerebert.suntimes.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/19910101/REVIEWS/40823002/1023 |url-status=yes }}</ref>
