Chloe Reviews
Given all of its mind games and sex games and seductions through storytelling, it’s surprisingly conventional, but until it tips its hand it is a compelling psychodrama with an elegantly sexy surface.

Artificial sensationalism. [Full review in Spanish]
| Jul 19, 2022
A semi-decent film with a solid cast that never quite gels into a good film.
| Original Score: 2.0/4.0 | Sep 5, 2020
For some, it might be easy to write off the film as a purely Hollywood thriller, but Egoyan packs in enough wisdom about the slow erosion of relationships, about aging, about female desire, to make Chloe utterly worthwhile.

The film seems content to wind itself up in a contrived 'thriller' climax, when a more cerebral exploration of its theme of emotional blindness might have been more engrossing
| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 21, 2019
This is a film that embraces its campy ridiculousness with stylistic restraint, and comes away as being a shamelessly entertaining mess.
| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Aug 5, 2019
In a movie so relentlessly stylish that nothing seems entirely real, Seyfried maintains a spooky, authentic poise. It's a sensational performance.

Even the leads can't overcome an absurd plot turn in the second half, as the film spirals into territory usually reserved for the 1 a.m. time slot on Cinemax.
| Original Score: D+ | May 10, 2019
So, if you're after a stylish, sexy B-movie, Chloe is a guilty pleasure of the highest order.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 23, 2018
It's all meant to be a sexy, tony thriller, but the script embroils Moore and Seyfried in such mortifying tawdriness that it exposes Chloe for what it is: soft-core porn without the courage of its convictions.

Chloe reminded me of Fatal Attraction, which was a believable and captivating film. This knockoff is not.

Intense at times, intriguing at others, Chloe will have her audience in those who want to see, peeking as in a peep show the intimacies of a woman, her husband and her lover. [Full review in Spanish]

Are meaty female roles so hard to come by in the US these days that even actresses as formidable as Moore choose such compromises?
Full Review | Jul 18, 2017
Becomes more a turnoff than a turn-on.
| Original Score: C+ | Mar 13, 2014
Chloe starts off as an intriguing psychological drama - and then veers off into B-movie territory. Yet Moore and Neeson are such classy actors that they can't help but elevate the pulpy material.
| Aug 2, 2012
The film goes shockingly flat when the more conventional thriller elements--what should be the film's bread and butter--kick in.
| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Apr 8, 2012
Egoyan's lyrical, ethereal style is present, but Catherine's motivation and masochistic tendencies seem to emerge out of nowhere.

I'm not often a fan of remakes but this intriguing tale has been beautifully told by Oscar nominated director Atom Egoyan.
| Original Score: A- | Dec 3, 2010
An erotically charged arthouse thriller that will make you squirm in your seat and curse yourself for bringing a date.
| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Oct 24, 2010
The liberally featured architecture of Toronto, where Chloe was shot, is outstanding. The film is another matter.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 15, 2010
