Boston GlobePeter KeoughOct 16, 2014
Things bottom out when Zoe not only hooks up with another lover (there is not an ounce of body fat in this movie), but also misses her son’s soccer game. And up until then we were all having a good time. Read full review

The A.V. ClubJesse HassengerOct 15, 2014
Addicted is basically a social-issue melodrama that, minus some curse words, thrusting, and frequent side nudity, could have emerged sometime in the ’50s. Read full review

The Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckOct 12, 2014
The film unfortunately depicts black female sexuality, a topic rarely portrayed onscreen, with all the depth and subtlety of a late night Cinemax offering. Read full review

Addicted is supposed to be erotica, so perhaps thinking about it too much is unfair, but the film is so uneven (it's both hot and preachy), as well as way too long, that thinking becomes inevitable. Read full review

Watching Addicted is like eating Cheese Whiz straight from the jar. There’s no nutritional value. It’s kind of embarrassing. But it does satisfy a base craving for cheap, immediate sensation. Read full review

The actors are uniformly handsome and mostly serviceable, though the same can’t be said about the filmmaking or the writing. Read full review

Los Angeles TimesGary GoldsteinOct 12, 2014
Addicted doesn’t know whether it wants to be a modern-day bodice-ripper, a morality-tinged cautionary tale or a serious snapshot of sexual compulsion. Whatever the case, it fails on all fronts. Read full review

TheWrapJames RocchiOct 10, 2014
The material swings between the sensual and the puritanical with whiplash-inducing speed; the dialogue all too often has the flat, dead sound of a first draft. Read full review
