Successful businesswoman Zoe Reynard (Sharon Leal) seems to have a charmed life. She has a wonderful, loving husband (Boris Kodjoe), two beautiful children and a thriving career. However, as perfect as her life might look to other people, Zoe is secretly tormented by nymphomania. Her need for constant sexual gratification leads her into a secretive existence -- one that, ultimately, may put her family, career and life on the line. Based on a novel by Zane.

Woodruff's direction is smooth enough on a technical level, but the film's storytelling has little dimension, even for a melodrama.

Rated: C-

New York Times

The actors are uniformly handsome and mostly serviceable, though the same can't be said about the filmmaking or the writing.

Washington Post

Watching "Addicted" is like eating Cheese Whiz straight from the jar. There's no nutritional value. It's kind of embarrassing. But it does satisfy a base craving for cheap, immediate sensation.

Rated: 1.5/4

Addicted doesn't know how to competently address its issues of shame and guilt without simply reifying that sexual fulfillment is something that ravages unless tightly contained.

Rated: 1/5

Addicted is the kind of film for which the Alan Smithee pseudonym was invented.

Screen International

Part soapy melodrama, part steamy thriller of infidelity gone sideways, this film is wholly unconvincing as a study of sexual compulsion.

A simple bad movie with a specific audience that doesn't want to see anything interesting.

The main character is credible and a good actress. Here and there some flaws, but the story works. The end is a little bit obvious, but all in all amusing.

My husband and I hoped to watch a kind of erotic movie. It wasn't erotic, it was boring. Anyway, I identified with the main character. I was raped too and I was seeking for some adventure, adrenaline all the time. So, I think they didn't really go deeply in the topic, it's more like soap opera. Not worth of watching

Awful. Awful acting. Awful plot. Awful sex scenes. Complete and utter rubbish. Plus the artist was high school standard. Pathetic.
