In search of a lost pleasure, Emmanuelle flies alone to Hong Kong and meets a man who constantly eludes her.

Critics Consensus

Bitterly disappointing given the talent involved, this modern take on Emmanuelle is an erotic odyssey with no sizzle.

Danny Leigh

Financial Times

To audiences mature enough to remember the 1970s franchise just this side of soft-core porn, the project will feel like a big-screen prawn cocktail: a cultural relic reimagined. Everyone else may simply be puzzled.

Rated: 3/5

That a filmmaker who previously displayed such a deep understanding of the pleasures and burdens of the female body is behind this tepid exercise in desire is a great shock — and an even bigger shame.

This is unadulterated torture.

Emmanuelle is aimless, dramatically inert and a little too safe to invest in.

Rated: 2/4

The Curb

Rarely transgressive, rarely meeting the measure of sensual, and rarely coherent, Audrey Diwan does little to modernise the Emmanuelle character and even less to make her feel adventurous and feminist. Emmanuelle is perfunctory and unforgivably pedestrian

…even by the low, low standards of the brand-name, this rebooted Emmanuelle just isn’t tender or perverse enough to be worth your attention…

Rated: 2/5

Not a huge fan of the 1974 original, but Silvia Kristel's sultry stare made it worth watching. Now we get weird faced Merlant who has the sexappeal of Bubbles from Trailer Park Boys. Hollywood is officially out of ideas.

Rated 1 out of 5 stars

I felt this remake was just ok. Their wasn't much to the characters though i felt the sexual scenes were enjoyable.

Haven't seen a movie so empty, void, and nothing as far as I can remember. Wonder where that 18% approval rate comes from and how this project got financed in the first place.
