I actually wasted my time watching this film about 2 weeks ago on the FMC (Fox Movie Channel, uncut). This has to be on of the most boring and dull movies I have ever seen in my entire life. There are... Full review

This was a weird movie but yet I was entertained. Theresa Randell is beautiful and talented actress. Spike Lee movies are strange, but this was a decent movie. I hope to see more of Thersea in the future.... Full review

| Mar 24, 2006Slant Magazine
Girl 6 , the story of a girl and her stint in the phone sex biz, is a sloppy and problematic film, no diggity.
But because Lee actually shows ingnue Theresa Randle's pop rocks, the critics roundly lumped him in with Q.T. and the rest of the auteur boys' club, branding him a closet misogynist whose transgression is all the more disappointing for its patina of masculine sensitivity.

Most of the rest look flat.
I've seen better, both from Anchor Bay and from Spike Lee.

By KENNETH TURAN TIMES FILM CRITIC April 6, 1996 Friday March 22, 1996 Spike Lee's "Girl 6" sounds better than it plays, which is kind of poetic justice for a film about phone sex.
Sometimes the wrong person tries to tell the right story, and the result is very much like "Girl 6": baffling, sketchy and unsatisfying.

while many would hesitate based on their own morality and outlook on artistic integrity, exploitation and so on.....Nola Darling was as confident and self-possessed as Girl 6 is confused and malleable.....Ambivalent reactions cued by the opening scene also stifle the mood for comedy.... ...

Time Out
Although her friend Jimmy (Lee) is appalled, in many ways 'Girl 6' is a liberating, therapeutic role: sexually she's always in control, she's well paid, and there's no colour barrier.

I love Spike Lee, but I could barely bring myself to watch "Girl 6." It's nothing but a big, dumb pile of hokum--a series of scenes thrown randomly together with only the weakest of links holding everything in place. ... Full Article
Naturally, to film this scene, Lee had to ask the well-endowed Randle to flash 'em.So what's the point here: that actresses should be judged on talent alone? ... Full Article

Lee's never been too hip to women's perspectives, and in ``Girl 6'' he proves that marriage, maturity and 10 years of film making haven't substantially corrected his blind spot. ... Full Article
