Better Than Sex Ratings & Reviews
New York Times
A.O. Scott
It's nice that Cin and Josh are free of hangups and neuroses, but too bad that their healthy, cheerful attitudes make them phenomenally boring.
Los Angeles Times
Kevin Thomas
Funny and honest in tracing the way in which lust can trigger emotion even if it's not supposed to be part of the plan.
New York Post
V.A. Musetto
The movie's only redeeming qualities are its stars, David Wenham and Susie Porter.
Boston Globe
Jay Carr
Runs out of impulse and falls back on glibness.
One Guy's Opinion
Frank Swietek
Absurdly threadbare.....Supposed to be darling, of course, but it's mostly a stream of flat, pedestrian or nauseatingly cute talk.
Murphy's Movie Reviews
Ted Murphy
The bulk of the film rests squarely on its leads and both Porter and Wenham are winning and appealing.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Carrie Rickey
With remarkable grace, [Teplitzky's] actors balance the competing demands of candor and whimsy, and the result, while not unforgettable, is charming.
Seattle Times
Eli Sanders
At times, Better Than Sex feels like Last Tango in Paris, with all the grunting and animalistic behavior but none of the raison d'etre.
Salon.com
Charles Taylor
It could be funnier, sharper, more probing, but at its best it is sexy, and that's always something to celebrate.
Houston Chronicle
Louis B. Parks
The director and actors get away with this fluff thanks to the nimble, whimsical way it's played.
Dallas Morning News
Philip Wuntch
Continues for 84 minutes, short for a feature but too long for a commercial. And Mr. Teplitzky lacks the big-screen savvy to fill the surplus footage.
The Hollywood Reporter
Kirk Honeycutt
Demonstrates why sex rarely makes a good spectator sport.
Village Voice
Ed Park
Teplitzky appears to have cribbed from Cosmopolitan circa 1985.
Spirituality & Practice
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat
An irresistible Australian romantic comedy that celebrates the life-affirming magic of sexual pleasure.
Los Angeles Daily News
Bob Strauss
This is refreshing: a sex film that actually thinks that, for the most part, sex is good fun.
PopMatters
Nikki Tranter
Writer/director Teplitsky has a great eye for detail and often manages to say a lot by saying very little.
IFilm
Dave White
They're a charming couple, and you don't mind watching them. Just don't expect insightful love revelations.
E! Online
It doesn't quite live up to the title, but this little Australian import will leave you feeling satisfied.
TV Guide
Maitland McDonagh
When you come down to it, its hoary insights -- like 'men are slobs' and 'women can never decide what to wear on a date' -- have been the stuff of sitcoms since the seven words you couldn't say on television were taboo in movies as well.
