May 4, 2011I can remember renting this one about 15 years or so, (no comments about my age, please!), and thinking it was not all that good.

January 19, 2011A great drama/comedy about sexism in high school. The cast is great, and it's very funny too. Loved this movie.

September 23, 2009Good 80's movie because the acting is bad but in a good 80's way which doesn't make sense unless you like the 80's

June 24, 2007This movie is OK. It has all the typical silly parts when a girl is pretending to be a guy - troubles in gym (especially in skins vs shirts), etc. I thought Joyce Hyser was fine as an actress - wonder why I have not seen her in any other movies.

Innocuously likable little mini-Tootsie.

Nikki Tranter, PopMatters
Just One of the Guys is worth repeated viewing, especially for Hyser's hilarious and charismatic performance. Full Review

Frank Ochieng, Movie Eye
Innocuous and highly-spirited screwball comedy about changing genders in a zany nod for advancement. Gottlieb's nutty narrative is inspired in its cheap laughs
