Buffy the Vampire Slayer Ratings & Reviews
Los Angeles Times
Kenneth Turan
While it would be a mistake to oversell "Buffy the Vampire Slayer," the sad and/or happy truth is that you could do worse on a warm summer night. A lot worse.
Orlando Sentinel
Jay Boyar
The idea of mixing vampires and modern teens has, of course, been tried before... But it has never been done with so much sophistication - yes, sophistication.
Chicago Tribune
Dave Kehr
''Buffy'' shuffles through a number of styles and approaches, from the satirical to the Grand Guignolesque, but never treats its material with much respect.
Tulsa World
Dennis King
"Buffy the Vampire Slayer" is lightweight summer fun.
South Florida Sun-Sentinel
Roger Hurlburt
Despite a promising set up, replete with oodles of Valley-girl lingo and cliquish quips, Buffy the Vampire Slayer becomes a comedy of missed opportunities and banal action.
Hartford Courant
Malcolm Johnson
"Buffy the Vampire Slayer" ultimately falls prey to the worst tendencies of horror and teen pictures.
TIME Magazine
TIME Staff
"Does the word duh mean anything to you?" It does to director Fran Rubel Kuzui, whose frenzied mistrust of her material is almost total.
Reactor
Emmet Asher-Perrin
[O]ne of the film's biggest blunders is that most of the actors are unsure about how seriously they should be taking the whole project, their leading lady included.
Geek Girl Authority
Leona Laurie
I give this a "Fresh" rating because it owns its place in history and is not nearly as bad as many of the action movies I've watched & discussed online.
Newsweek
David Ansen
As a comedy, "Buffy" is a horror show, and vice versa.
Decider
Jade Budowski
Buffy the Vampire Slayer evidently exists to show us what a rough, rough draft looks like...
Alternate Ending
Tim Brayton
Fine if we're looking at a nasty-minded satire about valley girls; less fine if we're looking at a funny-atop-serious fable about dealing with the end of high school .
Chicago Reader
Jonathan Rosenbaum
Joss Whedon's script has some fun with Valley talk (both genuine and ersatz) but strains to sell the story.
Variety
Todd McCarthy
A bloodless comic resurrection of the undead that goes serious just when it should get wild and woolly.
New York Times
Janet Maslin
A slight, good-humored film that's a lot more painless than might have been expected.
Rolling Stone
Peter Travers
As a friend tells Buffy while she eyes a fashion purchase, 'It's so five minutes ago.'
Austin Chronicle
Marjorie Baumgarten
A fun movie; so much better than it has to be and so much better than you expect it to be.
Washington Post
Desson Thomson
The second half feels stretched out and muddled, as if screenwriter Joss Whedon drove a stake through his script.
Washington Post
Hal Hinson
The jokes are pretty good, the premise is just off-the-wall enough to keep you tittering.
