A delightfully irreverent romantic comedy.

Reviews for Fast Food, Fast Women
Kollek’s screenplay and a concise, adventurous cast amply demonstrate the film’s reason for being by playing up the quirky oddness of the film‘s many frivolous details.
05/23/01
Thomson continues to amaze with her naked authenticity.
05/21/01
A comedy that satisfies with its magic moments of love, grace, and synchronicity.
05/17/01
Kollek's droll humor relieves most of the cloyingly familiar aspects of this wish-fulfillment phantasmagoria.
05/21/01
Top CriticA quintessential New York tale.
04/18/01
Naive as Kollek's writing is, there's something winning about his sympathy with out-of-step characters.
06/29/01
Top CriticThis movie's goofy charm won me over by the time it ended.
07/02/01
For all the off-key notes sounded by this story of an overworked New York waitress, a trio of her customers and a loutish cabbie, it never falls apart.
06/15/01
Sweet, quite often funny, and is even a bit reminiscent of a Woody Allen comedy.
04/16/01
Despite a script that occasionally calls for some embarrassingly awkward lines, Kollek's cast generally acquits itself well.
06/19/01
Top CriticAn intimate, small-scale movie in the nicest sense and represents a wholly unanticipated advance on the part of Kollek.
06/22/01
Top CriticIt's too soon by to know where Kollek will fit in, but he has a knack for sharp dialogue and comedy.
05/17/01
There's much pleasure to be had in watching these gifted and highly individual actors groaning over their fate as they tentatively set about love's first fumblings.
05/16/01
This small romantic comedy should be applauded for its pleasures.
06/29/01
There is warmth and empathy at the core of this movie that can overcome everything about it that's frustrating.
07/09/01
Thomson and Harris' relationship is underdeveloped, with screen time gobbled up by pointless plot points and stock characters.
05/18/01
Dreary and dull.
06/15/01
Just a vain attempt at making a movie about the perils of romance in the modern age.
