Critics Consensus

Lurid but acted with gusto, Indecent Proposal has difficulty keeping it up beyond its initial titillating premise.

The first hour of this movie is great. The rest... not so good...especially considering what it could have been. But that first hour is worth the price of admission.

The actual premise for the movie is quite thought-provoking, but that's about where anything interesting in this movie stops.

One of the absolute worst movies I have ever seen. I saw it with a guy I was dating at the time. It was bad enough in the theater but, having no sense of what I liked and didn't, boyfriend decided to punish me further by giving me the DVD for my birthday!

Newsweek

Not once in the whole silly exercise does he approximate a genuine emotion. Unable to dramatize marital love, he sells it, as if he were pitching perfume. Having nothing credible to play, Moore and Harrelson strike poses of love and anguish.

Indecent Proposal's seeming certainty over the profundity of its conceit winds up becoming its fatal flaw. Quite simply, it doesn't present that much of a dilemma.
