    This is such a dazzlingly self-assured directorial debut that it's hard to know what to praise first.
  2. Argento knows how to work her stuff, and the result is by turns saucy and grody, a fat lasagna of yesterday's "extreme" behavior dripping with Euro cheesiness.
  3. 60
    Actress-turned-writer/director Asia Argento's angry, outspoken, semi-autobiographical rant of a film is strident and occasionally juvenile, but it packs an undeniable wallop.

    A repetitious, borderline-silly vanity project.
