Reception
Leonard Maltin awarded the film two and a half stars. Russell Smith of The Austin Chronicle awarded the film two stars out of five.
TV Guide gave the film a mixed to positive review: "On the other hand, Cadillac Ranch is rather more successful in its shallower goal to be a pure action comedy, benefiting from jaunty direction and appealing performances by the lead actresses."
Todd McCarthy of Variety gave the film a positive review and wrote, "Lisa Gottlieb’s nimble, unflashy direction certainly represents an improvement on her 1985 debut feature, Just One of the Guys."
