Almodovar's first film is a slice of life in Madrid during the punk era and not one for the squeamish. The plot follows the wild adventures of three friends: Pepi, an independent modern woman; Luci, a mousy, masochistic housewife; and Bom, a lesbian punk rock singer.

Ty Burr's Watch List (Substack)

Ty Burr

It's an intentionally (if playfully) transgressive eruption of kitsch, punk rock, golden showers, abusive cops and rebellious sisterhood that features the director's first star discovery, Carmen Maura, as the most levelheaded of three friends.

An astonishing and unique film. [Full Review in Spanish]

This feature debut from Spain's enfant terrible is amateurish in both the positive and negative senses of the term, but it already shows his penchant for shock and provocation

Annoyingly amateurish.

New York Times

Janet Maslin

Most notable for its bathroom jokes, humorous rape scenes and abysmal home-movie cinematography, [the film is a] reputation-dimming mess.
