The Iron Ladies Reviews

Hilarious true story of Thailand's champion volleyball team that was composed of flaming drag queens

| Jun 28, 2014

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 21, 2005

Leaves you longing for the full time whistle

| Original Score: 2/5 | May 22, 2003

Fails to dig below the surface novelty of its subject.

| Jan 20, 2003

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

| Oct 21, 2002

This is still just a basic 'underdog sports team' movie. It's a charming one, but it's nothing special.

| Original Score: B- | Mar 1, 2002

[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.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Feb 22, 2002

Broad, sentimental but ultimately irresistible.

Full Review | Jan 17, 2002

It isn't very coy, but it avoids individual stereotypes.

| Dec 23, 2001

For all of its dubious gender archetyping (which, admittedly, does go with the prescribed cultural territory), it's hard to hate the film.

| Dec 9, 2001

If you can tolerate its predictability, you may fall for Iron Ladies' lighthearted spirit and affectionate humor.

| Dec 7, 2001

Not since Cool Runnings, the film about the Olympic bobsled team from Jamaica, have we had a sports movie so offbeat and upbeat as The Iron Ladies.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4 | Dec 7, 2001

Fun if formulaic.

Full Review | Nov 29, 2001

The outcome is predictable, the characters irritatingly flamboyant. But you still can't help but cheer for The Iron Ladies.

| Nov 2, 2001

| Original Score: 3/5 | Oct 28, 2001

That the movie is fun is undeniable. That it is bad is inarguable.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Oct 19, 2001

Spirited but sloppy.

Full Review | Oct 9, 2001

It is, if nothing else, 104 minutes of pure, spirited, fun-filled cinematic enjoyment.

Full Review | Sep 26, 2001

Hammers home every cartoonish clich of recent drag comedies.

| Sep 21, 2001

Like its spiritual cousin Big Eden, it's a puppy insistently licking your face. You will give in.
