Chicago Reader

The film pulls provocative insights and ironies out of each adventure as artfully as an accomplished pickpocket works a crowd...

The Nation

Four Adventures is considered neither part of the female friendship canon nor a major Rohmer, but it should be included in both.

Slant Magazine

Four Adventures uses a country-mouse-and-city-mouse template to explore the morality, aesthetic sense, urban and rural savvy, and a host of other concerns.

Rated: 3.5/4

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Combustible Celluloid

Very little seems to happen in this four-episode, light-as-air Éric Rohmer film, shot on 16mm and largely improvised by the actors, but it's a delicate delight, alive to small textures, sights, and sounds.

Rated: 3.5/4

Do you like experimental films? Do you like films that are amusing and curious to watch, but, not very particular to have a well made star to end story? Then, this film is for you. It's a story about two girls in 4 sections. Interesting movie, and I liked it.

I had seen this film years ago and now again. Nice contrast between the girls. Ordinary adventures somewhat funny, somewhat thoughtful. This time I watched it at 2,5 times the normal speed and it was okay. The whole thing didn't drag. This must be a child film. I would think Rainette is lesbian and the other curious, but nothing is shown in this department.

Light as "Rendez-vous in Paris" but with a deeper (and always honest) eye on day-by-day life. </br> </br>
