Borden's exhilarating collage-like story stages news reports, documentary sequences, and surveillance footage alongside tough action scenes and musical numbers; her violent vision is both ideologically complex and chilling.

New Yorker
Rating: 2.5/4 --
This feminist film wins laurels for close attention to detail in a radical filmmaking effort.

TV Guide
I enjoyed this immensely, largely because of the music and the general ramshackle, hipshot attitude of rebellion.

Patheos
Born in Flames, while inventive, is also much too diffuse and overcrowded.
New York Times
As hackneyed as the phrase may be, Born in Flames is a stark, in-your-face reminder that the more things change, the more they stay the same.

The Blue Lenses
Made piecemeal over a number of years and first released in 1983, this 90-minute comic fantasy has lost little of its radical edge.

Description by OLDIES.com:
The movie that rocked the foundations of the early Indie film world, this provocative fantasy of female rebellion is set in America ten years after the Second American Revolution. When Adelaide Norris, the black radical founder of the Woman's Army, is mysteriously killed, a diverse coalition of women -- across all lines of race, class, and sexual preference -- emerges to blow the System apart.
