Kinsey Reviews

external link"Kinsey" is a brutally honest, uncompromising and nonjudgmental look at a man who irrevocably changed American culture: sex researcher Alfred C. Kinsey, who published "Sexual Behavior in the Human Male" and "Sexual Behavior in the Human Female" in the late '40s and early '50s. [read review]
--Paul Clinton (CNN Showbiz)
external linkKinsey is not as strong on character, but is just as rich in ideas. For those who aren't put off by a movie whose sexual frankness knows few boundaries, Kinsey has much to recommend itself. This is a fine motion picture with a couple of superlative performances. It is arguably the best, most honest bio-pic of the year, and is certainly worth the price of admission. [read review] 3/4
--James Berardinelli (ReelViews)
external linkThe movie may pique your interest solely because of the sexy subject matter, but this is no leering and licentious little confection. As a matter of fact, there's barely any sex and next to zero in the nudity department, but "Kinsey" still packs a delicious little punch. [read review] 4/5
--Scott Weinberg (eFilmCritic.com)
external linkKINSEY is an intelligent film that is never less than completely humane. For audiences, fidgeting in their seats or giggling nervously as sex in all its manifestations plays out on the screen, it might just change a few cherished assumptions and, ultimately, make them a little more comfortable in its skin. [read review] 4/5
--Andrea Chase (Killer Movie Reviews)
external linkDespite being anchored by some knockout performances, especially by Neeson and Lynn Redgrave (who has a pivotal cameo at the end), the movie’s traditional biopic structure proves a poor fit for the life of an undeniably fascinating figure. [read review] 2/5
--Beth Gilligan (eFilmCritic.com)
external link"Kinsey" tells a remarkable story about a curious man from an oppressively pious background whose own sexual ignorance drove him to an obsession with human sexuality that included the full spectrum of personal experimentation. [read review]
--Jack Mathews (New York Daily News)
external link''KINSEY,'' Bill Condon's smart, stirring life of the renowned mid-century sex researcher Alfred C. Kinsey, has a lot to say on the subject of sex, which it treats with sobriety, sensitivity and a welcome measure of humor. [read review]
--A.O. Scott (The New York Times)
external linkBill Condon’s Kinsey has the look of a biographical tale but not the by-the-numbers feel that often outlasts our patience for the dryness we’re experiencing. [read review] 4/5
--Erik Childress (eFilmCritic.com)
external linkThis is a good script handed to the right actors, handled by the right director, which, while perhaps expected at a season like this, is sure a nice relief. [read review] B
--Lee Tistaert (Lee's Movie Info)
external linkRespectful and bland, this biopic about revolutionary sex researcher Alfred Kinsey is about as exciting as a date with grandma. [read review]
--Stephanie Zacharek (Salon)
