B+
"Posey rides the role with grace and charm, capturing each lightening bolt of self-discovery while also keeping the role grounded in quietly eroding shame."  FilmJerk.com  Brian Orndorf

1.5/5
"there simply isn't enough material here to carry a short, much less an hour-and-a-half-long feature"  Filmcritic.com  Chris Barsanti

0/4
"The sound recording is hollow and muddy, the cinematography underlit and sometimes blurred at the edges, and the whole thing has the dreary feeling of a bottom-of-the-barrel, clammy '70s sex comedy."  Slant Magazine  Dan Callahan

C-
"It's a harmless feel-good romantic comedy which offers a lot of cheap thrills and lowbrow comedy, but is too dysfunctional to stir up an orgasm."  Ozus' World Movie Reviews  Dennis Schwartz

2/4
"Its coarse opening sections are ill-matched for the warmly compassionate tale it ultimately matures into."  TheMovieBoy.com  Dustin Putman

C+
"We wind up feeling like Priscilla after sex with her husband: It was really fun at first; we just hoped it would end differently."  EricDSnider.com  Eric D. Snider

D
"Or more aptly, The Aw in Awful."  One Guy's Opinion  Frank Swietek

"Not since Sex in the City has frank, female driven dialogue been so funny or enlightening."  Light Views  John Larsen

6/10
"Ultimately, Ohio fails to deliver in the third act, which is kind of ironic for a film about orgasms."  Planet Sick-Boy  Jon Popick

1/5
"full review in Greek"  Movies for the Masses  Joseph Proimakis

C
"One must endure an hour of...crude gags until the film mutates into something almost wonderful in its final third, rescued by unlikely romantic foil Danny DeVito"  Reeling Reviews  Laura Clifford

2.5/4
"Billy Kent and Adam Wierzbianski's genial comedy about one woman's search for sexual satisfaction takes an unsmutty attitude but falls disappointing short of its ambition to be both sympathetically straightforward and funny."  TV Guide's Movie Guide  Maitland McDonagh

5/10
"The film smolders a little but never has much fire. It has a few smiles, but very few laughs."  rec.arts.movies.reviews  Mark R. Leeper

3/5
"Mischa Barton’s acting is about as flat as her chest."  eFilmCritic.com  Peter Sobczynski

B-
"The sexual nature of the film will attract the tweeny crowd but the summer/fall romance between Priscilla and Wayne is the real draw, thanks to [Danny] DeVito."  Reeling Reviews  Robin Clifford

7/10
"The Queen of the Indies ploughs the fertile ground of feminine self-empowerment with good vibrations for all."  Monsters and Critics  Ron Wilkinson

"Comedies for grown-ups, period, are now in such short supply that a good-natured little picture like The Oh in Ohio feels like an anomaly."  Salon.com  Stephanie Zacharek

"Click here to see review"  Wolf Entertainment Guide  William Wolf
