Critics Consensus

One of indie stalwart Gregg Araki's most accessible works yet, this bawdy dramedy leverages well-judged performances by Olivia Wilde and Cooper Hoffman to deliver incisive commentary on carnality and connection.

Audience Says

As provocative as its title, I Want Your Sex takes refreshingly bold risks with an intriguing premise, though its uneven pacing may titillate some viewers and turn off others.

B-

I Want Your Sex has all the hallmarks of an erotic thriller of the ‘80s and ‘90s, but it’s much funnier—and much kinkier—in its story about the feckless dope who gets roped in by the femme fatale than most of the genre it’s nodding to.

3/4

It is a terrific platform for Wilde, who as an actor Hollywood never quite knew how to use properly... Araki’s film figures out how to use all her qualities in wildly entertaining fashion.

When "Sex" keeps the focus on the couple at the center, you can feel it tapping into something as old as the moving pictures themselves. Nothing is hotter than connection.

14 years of foreplay was a small price to pay for a new quality Araki comedy.

Despite the film’s edgy premise, this is arguably Araki at his most mainstream, though it’s also clearly a love letter to longtime fans.

The film, however, is a showcase for Wilde, who glides into the part with relish and vim without going over the top.

It's funny and entertaining, but could've been much better. It's basically the straight people's version of Pillion, but Pillion was far superior.
