Cast

Style

The Daily News 's Michael Korb wrote, "Confessions is a little more risque than traditional Lifetime fare -- considering that Hobbs and friends are dancing around in their underwear for a significant portion of the film". [2] Brad Newsome agreed, stating in The Sydney Morning Herald , "This is a little racier than the usual Hallmark fare." [3] Robert Philpot said the film "continues [Lifetime's] August series of lurid-topic movies". [4]

Reception

Steve Pratt criticized the film in The Northern Echo , writing, "No full frontals in Confessions Of A Go-Go Girl [...] a 2008 TV movie of numbing boredom – even in fast forward mode." [5]
