	Author	Review
United States	Roger Ebert rogerebert.com	"A mixed bag, with one hilarious segment, one passable and two that don't work at all (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 4)"	NEU
United States	Jack Mathews Los Angeles Times	"It's not enough to say that 'Four Rooms' is a bad movie. It's four bad movies rolled into one"	NEG
United Kingdom	Mark Salisbury Empire	"A dull, largely pointless, mostly boring exercise that begins badly, tests your patience as well as your endurance, and proves that all that Tarantino touches doesn't turn to gold (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEG
United States	Janet Maslin The New York Times	"The cast does include some good actors. But you wouldn't want to see any of these people in a traffic accident, and you won't want to see them here."	NEG
United States	Jonathan Rosenbaum Chicago Reader	"'Four Rooms' is rather interesting in spite of--or perhaps because of--its disturbing awfulness."	NEU
United States	Edward Guthmann SFGATE	"The result is a batch of shrill, self-indulgent sketches that turn so wretched in spots you start to wonder if the filmmakers wanted them to be bad"	NEG
United States	Hal Hinson The Washington Post	"We're treated to some unfunny weirdness (...) [A] trifling fiasco"	NEG
United Kingdom	Tom Charity Time Out	"They should have called this 'One Room' and released it as a Rodriguez short."	NEU
United States	Nathan Rabin AV Club	"Movies that work this hard to be sexy and fun generally end up being neither. 'Four Rooms' is no exception (...) It retains some value as a time capsule"	NEU
United States	James Berardinelli ReelViews	"This movie recalls one of the worst hotel movies of all time, 'Blame it on the Bellboy' (...) A poor way to waste an evening (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 4)"	NEG
