Critic Reviews
There's no getting around the fact that it's an uneven exercise that shows signs of having gestated too long. [04 Jun 1999]
The Loss of Sexual Innocence is belabored, pretentious and often willfully opaque. [25 Jun 1999]
Figgis depends on his considerable ability to evoke mood in a symphony of image, montage and music. But these scenes, watchable as some of them are (and I don't mean the Fall of Man Follies), don't accumulate into much more than abstract mush. [25 Jun 1999]
With The Loss of Sexual Innocence, director Mike Figgis reaches an almost comical low in the pursuit of what appears to be a desperate need to express deeper, uh, depth. Figgis' deliberate obfuscation may delight him, but it leaves the viewer mystified and bitter. [18 Jun 1999]
The Loss of Sexual Innocence is a work of intransigent anger and barely relieved depression. [28 May 1999]
