Production


Of her experience with this film, McCormack said in a 2006 interview with The Independent: “Basically, I had a miserable time with the director [Anna Campion](…)It was my first film job, I needed to be mollycoddled, I needed to be helped through it, and I wasn't. Mostly, it was a horrible experience.”

Reception


The film has a 17% rating on Rotten Tomatoes based on six reviews.
Derek Elley of Variety gave the film a negative review and wrote, "Weakly scripted, lacklusterly acted tale of a bunch of young, disillusioned Brits flounders around as much as its characters. Commercial chances look grim." Janet Maslin of The New York Times also gave the film a negative review and wrote, "Unfortunately, Loaded gives way to indulgent dithering long before such elements create any cumulative effect."
Erin Richter of Entertainment Weekly also gave the film a negative review and wrote, “What starts as an intriguing, intricately woven study of seven angst-filled filmmakers loses its shape within the final 20 minutes.” Kevin Thomas of the Los Angeles Times gave the film a positive review and wrote, "The result is a superbly acted film of terrific density and immediacy; it’s thick with feelings, both expressed and repressed, and it evokes a strong sense of the ultimate ambiguity of human nature and behavior."
