Slant Magazine
This handsome mate-swapping drama never moves beyond the erotic to become incisive about the barriers built into sexual experimentation for committed couples. - 50
Village Voice
Cordier remains sensitive to the subtle shifts in the foursome's dynamics, but do we really need another handwringer about the perils of polyamory? - 50
The New York Times
Too lazy and too scared to say anything pertinent about love, society and the human condition, Four Lovers is content to be a pleasant, mildly titillating divertissement with no meaning at all. - 40
Time Out
Close to a parody of a French sex drama - complete with bored, bourgie bed-swappers and a dull sense of amoral sophistication - this autopiloted import does no favors to the legacies of Truffaut and Godard. - 40
Chicago Reader
Inevitably, however, this oh-so-cosmopolitan setup gradually devolves into resentment, messy romance, and marital strife. - 38
New York Post
Antony Cordier's Four Lovers offers only dull characters playing for extremely low stakes. - 38
Chicago Sun-Times
You know there's something wrong with a sex movie when the good parts are the dialogue.
