Those seeking more adventurous, cerebral, inspired stuff will get a helluva kick. - 80
Screen Daily
Any film which features Demi Moore breathily vamping her way through an appreciation for her dishwasher and which permits Andrea Riseborough to deliver a performance as gloriously OTT as this one has plenty to recommend it. - 80
Variety
Kramer sketches out a feverish queer manifesto on gender that feels both novel and familiar. - 78
Austin Chronicle
Of those who will seek this out, they’re either going to really dig it or just absolutely loathe it. There is no middle ground here, but Riseborough’s performance deserves to be seen by everyone. - 63
Slant Magazine
The film’s unapologetic level of artifice is at once the source of its pleasures and limitations. - 50
Movie Nation
A fascinating but frustrating overreach that is never more fun than when it’s most over the top, but never really gets a handle on what it’s supposed to be about.
