“Losin’ It […] isn’t without its likable moments, but it isn’t overloaded with them, either. […] Kathy isn’t much of a character, but she is played charmingly by Shelley Long, […] who demonstrates impressive talents as a physical comedienne. She’s the best thing in the movie, although John P. Navin Jr. is also fairly funny as the fireworks tycoon.”Janet Maslin: Losin It. In: The New York Times, 8. April 1983.
“[…] this amiable, but entirely predictable trifle. Formerly of interest to Cruise-completists only, now with an extended life thanks to Hanson’s ascension to the directorial A-list.” Vgl. Losin’ It auf timeout.com

“But director Curtis Hanson makes a commendable effort with a rather obvious story […]. Though none is really very experienced, each is sophisticated to a stereotyped degree. […] This doesn’t sound like much and it isn’t, but the picture is a solid credit for all involved.” Vgl. Losin’ It. In: Variety, 1983.
