      Chicago Sun-Times

      The movie is ingenious in the way it surrounds its essentially crass subject matter with a camouflage of romantic scenery.

      The New York Times

      Mr. Lyne's films may not cast any new light on the human condition, but they do keep you glued to the screen.

      Empire

      The performances are alright enough but the casting was a bizarre choice and it's just not strong enough to carry the premise.

      ReelViews

      Once the setup is over, however, Indecent Proposal starts to fall apart, with the implausibilities and contrivances getting worse with every passing minute.

      Rolling Stone

      As sexist propaganda, the film is shameless.

      Entertainment Weekly

      Indecent Proposal starts out kinky and turns into a languid-and shockingly banal- domestic soap opera.

      Austin Chronicle

      Lyne has the stylized talent of a soft-core pornographer; he choreographs his movies like languorous sex scenes.

      Los Angeles Times

      Redford's Gage is so busy being exquisitely sensitive and polite he neglects to project any energy, and without it the crucial morning-after part of the movie gradually collapses under the weight of its own self-importance. [07 Apr 1993 Pg. F1]
