Leave your thoughts about Lovelace.
| ObserverDrew GrantLovelace may be a movie about a porn star, but it’s not pornographic. At least, not sexually. |
| Sky CinemaTim EvansSeyfried is a revelation as the blithely trusting Linda, initially under the sleazy spell of Chuck and latterly terrified of his physical and mental abuse. |
| San Francisco ChronicleMick LaSalleEven if a quarter of what Boreman claimed was true, she had a lot more coming to her than a sympathetic hearing and much prettier actress playing her onscreen. She practically deserved an apology from the male sex, and that, in a way, is what this movie is. |
| Chicago Sun-TimesRichard RoeperPerfectly capturing the tenor of the times and the grimy underworld of the porn industry, Lovelace is the kind of movie you’ll appreciate and respect but never enjoy. |
| The PlaylistJessica KiangDespite Seyfried’s gameness, we come away a little deadened from the experience and knowing precious little more than before about the person who inhabited the body, the life and the throat of Linda Lovelace. |
| RedEyeMatt PaisDoes a good job of setting the record straight about the person behind the '70s late-night talk show punchlines. |
| amNewYorkRobert LevinThe movie sharply evokes the era and exudes a lurid fascination by unpacking this sensational story. But it really works because the performances drive things. |
| Detroit NewsTom LongThe familiar arc is complete, the grisly elements all ring true. But somehow it all feels too surface, too easy. Why, why, why? There must have been more. |
| Chicago ReaderAndrea GronvallThis drama from codirectors Rob Epstein and Jeffrey Friedman is so respectful of 70s porn sensation Linda Lovelace that instead of humanizing the Deep Throat star, it reduces her to one dimension: victim. |
| One Guy's OpinionFrank SwietekThe spin it gives to the story makes for an intriguingly stylish, if incomplete, biography/cautionary tale. |
