Critics Consensus

Nicole Kidman and Harris Dickinson memorably smolder together in Babygirl, with writer-director Halina Reijn's clinical gaze keeping this sexually frank thriller more provocative than prurient.

"Babygirl" is a high-wire act. It's a small miracle the film works as well as it does.

Rated: 3.5/4

Jake Coyle

Associated Press

A sometimes campy, frequently entertaining modern update to the erotically charged movies of the 1990s, like Basic Instinct and 9 ½ Weeks.

Rated: 3/4

Kyle Smith

Wall Street Journal

Romy has the messy, multifaceted nature of a fully realized character from a literary novel or a memoir, and Ms. Kidman, who is as gifted as she is fearless, is the ideal actress to capture her.

The Curb

A fascinating study of the dynamics of power both taking and relinquishing it. Halina Reijn‘s Babygirl is sexy, funny, and allows great performances from Kidman, Dickinson, Banderas, and Wilde.

Rated: 4/5

Unlike its protagonist, Babygirl is too easily satisfied.

Butler's Cinema Scene

Reijn pulls off the near impossible here by delivering a huge blast of eroticism while avoiding the whole male gaze thing. It’s the most overtly sexual performance of Kidman’s career, but it never veers into exploitation.

Rated: B

It is a very erotic movie trying to excuse the act of cheating! It felt like Nicole Kidmans last attempt to showcase her (still beautiful) body. To me, the plot was incoherent and a lame excuse to cheat. Stupidity of the main character was overwhelming.

babygirl is 1 interesting movie. I saw it more out of curiosity. I don't think I would of seen babygirl if it was released at a different time or month. babygirl might be 1 of the most interesting movies on why married women might have an affair. Nicole kidman gives 1 heck of a performance. can't deny that

Disappointed in the film. I expected more from the high profile actors in this film. Also, thought it was demeaning for women. Wish we had gone to see the Lion King movie instead…
