...songs as You Can't Always Get What You Want, Good Lovin', Ain 't Too Proud to Beg and A Natural Woman. Indeed, the entire film is a kind of sock-hop benefit for Approaching Middle Age. This maturing generation never played Taps with such glamour or good humor. Play the music and let the big chill-the knowledge that "we're all alone out there, and we're going out there tomorrow"-melt away in the warmth of the feel-good movie of '83. -By Richard Corliss

...dismissed as an interesting experiment. The girls live on their grandmother's farm in Northern Ohio, and nothing terribly tragic or extraordinary ever happens in the old brick house and surrounding fields where they spend their days.
