The A.V. ClubNathan Rabin
Originally titled Lady Killers, this rancid, underlit B-movie aspires to little more than cheap laughs eked out of the discomfort and queasiness Owen and Friedle feel over sexually servicing assertive, kinky old women. Read full review

For the most part, The Gold Diggers is not even chuckle-producing. At best, it might warm a cockle or two or provoke a bit of a smile. Read full review

It all makes Nat Lamp's recent "Van Wilder" look like an instant classic. Read full review

Put it this way: National Lampoon's Gold Diggers makes "The Anna Nicole Show" look sophisticated. Read full review

Los Angeles TimesKevin Crust
A one-gag movie and that one gag isn't funny. Taylor and Lasser are reduced to playing sex-starved Norma Desmonds, and while Friedle and Owen are certainly game, their plan is a waste of everyone's time, especially the audience's. Read full review

L.A. WeeklyTim Appelo
A May-September sex farce so prodigiously unintriguing that audiences could be forgiven for stampeding from theaters to strangle its writer-director, Gary Preisler, in his sleep. Read full review

Less offensive than embarrassing, at least for the chagrined performers. Read full review

Washington PostJen Chaney
So stupefyingly hideous that after watching it, you'll need to bathe in 10 gallons of disinfectant, get a full-body scrub and shampoo with vinegar to remove the scummy residue that remains. Read full review

Chicago ReaderHank Sartin
Nothing's quite so painful as failed comedy, and this atrocity is equivalent to a compound fracture. Read full review

New York PostLou Lumenick
Certainly the most painfully unfunny of the countless bad movies that have licensed the name of the long-defunct humor magazine. Read full review

San Francisco ChroniclePeter Hartlaub
A movie so filled with contemptible, ugly and unfunny characters that it is physically difficult to watch. Read full review
