Interior. Leather Bar. Ratings & Reviews
San Francisco Chronicle
David Lewis
"Interior. Leather Bar." is a Rubik's Cube of a movie, an intriguing, layered puzzle that isn't easily solved.
RogerEbert.com
Matt Zoller Seitz
"Interior. Leather Bar" is ultimately more an idea for movie than a movie, the rap sessions ramble, and it feels half-baked by the time it gets to its climactic twist, which isn't as clever as it thinks.
New York Daily News
Elizabeth Weitzman
We see brief, graphic shots of naked actors performing sexual acts. But it's the conversations about what those depictions represent that truly provoke.
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
It largely consists of Franco musing about depictions of homosexual activity on film.
Slant Magazine
Eric Henderson
With Travis Mathews's help, James Franco's persona forms a kind of symmetry: 1980's dubious homophobia against 2013's risible homophilia.
The Playlist
Jessica Kiang
...Franco has finally delivered a side project that does at least some justice to his eclectic artistic ambitions.
Film Comment Magazine
Amy Taubin
Mathews and Franco's collaboration is notable for an almost complete absence of the homophobia in which Cruising is saturated.
Film Comment Magazine
Nathan Lee
A movie that continually puzzles over what it is and why it is being made.
New York Times
Manohla Dargis
Simultaneously an act of creation and deconstruction.
TheWrap
Alonso Duralde
Uses the notorious Friedkin movie as a starting point for a discussion about identity, perception, an actor's mask and the fear and power of on-screen sexuality.
Village Voice
Calum Marsh
A particularly risible nothing whose premise alone betrays the paucity of Franco's imagination and wit.
Variety
Peter Debruge
A partly authentic, partly scripted behind-the-scenes featurette that never quite conveys the star's "high/curious" interest in all things taboo.
The Hollywood Reporter
John DeFore
The hourlong experiment is mainly for queer-theory students and Francomaniacs.
Los Angeles Times
Sheri Linden
A cheerfully unsettling exploration of mainstream representations of male homosexuality.
Antagony & Ecstasy
Tim Brayton
Joylessly over-enunciates all of its questions in bluntly literal ways.
Eye for Film
Jennie Kermode
This is a curious film, an important film and, in its oblique way, a very funny film.
The Dissolve
Nathan Rabin
A supremely masturbatory endeavor that prominently features naked men actually masturbating, Interior. Leather Bar. is obsessed with itself and with its co-creator, but its fascination is understandable and even justified.
Paste Magazine
Lee Tyler
Interior. Leather Bar. isn't as concerned with accurate depictions of historical footage as it is interested in deconstructing Friedkin's ideas and reassembling them in a contemporary context.
Movie Mezzanine
Dan Schindel
This is the embodiment of the Franco that Franco was poking fun of in This is the End. And there's a reason that schtick was funny - this Franco isn't insightful, he's dull.
Film Journal International
David Noh
A truly one-of-a-kind film from James Franco & Co. seriously, intelligently and movingly addresses sexuality in film
