Leave your thoughts about Afternoon Delight.
| HeyUGuysLisa Giles-KeddieAfternoon Delight is the pitch-perfect morning, afternoon or evening viewing for any stay-at-home-mum who gets the 'grass is always greener' speech from her working sisters. |
| Entertainment WeeklyOwen GleibermanAs the sweetly amoral tattooed-goddess-for-hire, Temple does her wiliest acting yet. |
| Philadelphia WeeklySean BurnsMistaking smug self-awareness for satire, the film attempts to skewer yuppie privilege while accidentally wallowing in it. |
| Madison MovieRob ThomasThere's a delicious discomfort in watching a funny person deliberately not being funny - think Jerry Lewis in "King of Comedy" - that gives "Afternoon Delight" an agreeably tart flavor. |
| Detroit NewsTom LongThe entire film is good but the revelation here is Hahn, reliably one of the funniest women in Hollywood, now suddenly given a rich, complex and even sexy role. |
| The PlaylistCory EverettAfternoon Delight succeeds mainly because although the premise is broad, writer/director Jill Soloway is determined to keep it real. |
| RedEyeMatt PaisThe lack of judgment toward McKenna's part-time sex work that makes Afternoon Delight refreshingly open-minded. Dan Savage would approve. |
| ViewLondonJennifer TateAn enjoyable romantic drama with refreshingly interesting female characters and a duo of impressive performances from Kathryn Hahn and Juno Temple. |
| The Film StageJared MobarakNo longer the hilarious side role, Soloway gives Hahn an opportunity to star. She, in turn, proves ready and deserving of the challenge. |
| New York PostFarran Smith NehmeThere are some bright one-liners in the beginning, but the comedy/drama mix is an uneasy one, especially considering the shabby way the film treats McKenna, as a tart who’s just there to improve some yuppie sex lives. |
