Movie Reviews

Chicago Reader - 10/10 by Jonathan RosenbaumWith its American, English, and French characters representing the three cultures Polanski has known since he left Poland, it's also quite possibly his most personal film—and certainly his most self-critical.
Combustible Celluloid - 9/10 by Jeffrey M. AndersonPolanski tempers his tale by filtering it through Grant, who receives it with a combination of disgust and fascination.
Time Out - 9/10 by Geoff AndrewRich and darkly disturbing, it's also wickedly entertaining.
Slant Magazine - 9/10 by Eric HendersonAs easy as it would be to make rude connections between the film’s raunchy shenanigans and Polanski’s own history, the fact is that Bitter Moon doesn’t feel like either an explanation, an apology, nor a defense of the kinky sexual games adults play. Think of it as Polanski’s Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf.
The Seattle Times - 9/10 by John HartlWidely reviled a decade ago, Bitter Moon now plays as a visionary bridging of Brian De Palma's cinematic perversity and Takashi Miike's literal perversity, in addition to being another uncompromising Polanski study of the ways people torture each other.
Hartford Courant - 8/10 by Malcolm JohnsonAgain, Polanski gives us a deliciously bitter, moonstruck tale of love and sex and revenge and blood, and even the possibility of redemption.
Chicago Sun-Times - 8/10 by Roger EbertBitter Moon is wretched excess. But Polanski directs it without compromise or apology, and it's a funny thing how critics may condescend to it, but while they're watching it you could hear a pin drop.
Newsweek - 8/10 by David AnsenRecklessly perched on the edge of the ludicrous, this examination of a destructive erotic passion unfolds with an unsettling mixture of steam and mordant iron.
Rolling Stone - 8/10 by Peter TraversPolanski has great wicked fun with sex, love, cruelty, books, movies and, of course, himself. If you don’t go along with the joke, you’re in for rough sailing.
The Globe and Mail (Toronto) - 8/10 by Christopher HarrisRecklessly perched on the edge of the ludicrous, this examination of a destructive erotic passion unfolds with an unsettling mixture of steam and mordant iron.
