"You'll need to swallow your preconceived notions, but I would not hesitate to recommend the film to just about anyone."

Christopher Null
3.5/4
"With a movie based on the porn industry, you’d expect it to be trashy, cheap, and even tawdry. But it's not."

David Keyes
3.5/4
"...Paul Thomas Anderson cements his reputation as one of the most gifted filmmakers of his generation..."

"I want to write a long essay on this because it's a complicated film experience but it's really great! The acting is great, the review (this one) is poorly written"

4/4
"'You're a star,' goes the film's final line. Truer words cannot be spoken about Paul Thomas Anderson."

"Os diálogos são afiadíssimos, e Paul Thomas Anderson permite que seus atores se sintam livres para interpretar, sem preocupações com questões técnicas."
Cinema em Cena
Pablo Villaca

8/10
"A searing indictment of not only the adult entertainment industry, but the whole value-free Hollywood lifestyle of the late 1970s and 1980s. At the same time it has a certain sympathy for its characters."
