Sweet/Vicious is a rousing shot of whip-smart wish fulfillment, despite its occasional missteps.

Nov 11, 2016
While scenes between ninja-like sorority girl Jules (Eliza Bennett) and weed-dealing hacker Ophelia (Taylor Dearden) crackle with giddy odd-couple chemistry, Sweet/Vicious' edge isn't as sharp as it wants to be. [18 Nov 2016, p.53]

[Sweet/Vicious] is just as timely [as Unreal] in its depiction of female empowerment and rage, tempered with a jaded, wry irony. [5-18 Dec 2016, p.23]

Although it epitomizes some of MTV’s more egregious narrative and character-based burdens, the show’s call-to-arms, neck-throttling anger--which smacks you in the face in its opening scene and comes full circle by the end of episode 2--is performed with enough grit and affection as to justify the seedy morals Sweet/Vicious is daring enough to embrace.

It’s essentially an enjoyable superhero saga.

The film editing is a bit clunky, with the camera sometimes lingering too long on actors after a scene has concluded, making the transitions a little rough. But the story’s there.
