Reviews for She Gets What She Wants
[Mayron] manages to keep things affectionate even while she's sending things up higher than a full moon over Texas.

Clever and unflinching in its comic barbs, Slap Her is a small but rewarding comedy that takes aim at contemporary southern adolescence and never lets up.
10/03/02
A droll, bitchy frolic which pokes fun at the price of popularity and small-town pretension in the Lone Star State.
10/12/02
The humor is sharp and the satirical targets are mercilessly skewered.
08/13/05
A delectable little treat that's sunny, funny, and far more intelligent than you'd expect.

... a cute and sometimes side-splittingly funny blend of Legally Blonde and Drop Dead Gorgeous, starring Piper Perabo in what could be her breakthrough role.

Slap her - she's not funny! No French people were harmed during the making of this movie, but they were insulted and the audience was put through torture for an hour and a half.

...even if one were willing to overlook the downright aimless storyline, there's still the dearth of laughs and muddled character motives to contend with.

Good-looking but relentlessly lowbrow outing plays like Clueless Does South Fork.
08/01/02
As if Drop Dead Gorgeous wasn't enough, this equally derisive clunker is fixated on the spectacle of small-town competition.

If we’re to slap protagonist Genevieve LePlouff because she’s French, do we have that same option to slap her creators because they’re clueless and inept?
09/18/02
The humor is forced and heavy-handed, and occasionally simply unpleasant.
09/17/02
Takes one character we don't like and another we don't believe, and puts them into a battle of wills that is impossible to care about and isn't very funny.
10/22/02
The script falls back on too many tried-and-true shenanigans that hardly distinguish it from the next teen comedy.
