Top Critic... too shrill and silly to take seriously, but the high spirits and naïve message of tolerance and pride is oddly, innocently winning.

Picture The Mighty Ducks or The Bad News Bears with drag-queen players and a lesbian coach, and you've pretty much got the gist of this offensively lame game.

Fails to dig below the surface novelty of its subject.

Pick any underdog sports film and re-imagine its cast of cliched archetypes as nelly drag queens and you have the offensive Ladies in a pink nutshell.

Leaves you longing for the full time whistle

Hopelessly dated movie about transsexuals and gays who win over the bashers through volleyball

Top CriticThis is a terrific sports story. It is unfortunately something less than a terrific film.

[T]he film's rather narrow target audience may enjoy this bit of silly fluff. But many others outside that group will probably find it strained and even painful.

Spirited but sloppy.

Hammers home every cartoonish cliché of recent drag comedies.
