"It's a movie that has nothing nice to say about anybody. Far from the romp its ads make it appear to be, it's misanthropic, cruel, hostile, corrupt, blasphemous and basically pretty evil. I loved it." | POS |

"It is always a problem in a love story when the rival seems more interesting than the hero, and that's what happens here. (...) There is, in fact, a lot of good stuff here, but it's all at the service of an imbecilic approach. (...) Rating: ★★ (out of four)" | NEU |

!It's a tribute to Robert Gordon's nifty screenplay and Dunne's cheerful way with digression that 'Addicted to Love', even as it broadens into screwball, also deepens into a character study full of surprising left turns" | POS |
