Critic Reviews

Has the quality of many great films, in that it always seems alive.Full Review

Roger Ebert
Chicago Sun-Times

Writer-director Paul Thomas Anderson has perfectly wedded form to function by filming Boogie Nights in a style suggesting the grainy texture of porn and the ambivalence of the era.Full Review

Jami Bernard
New York Daily News

While it's very funny, Boogie Nights taps into something much deeper with its on-target depiction of the shifting political and social tides of the '70s and '80s and thoughtful relationships between characters. It's a deeply satisfying movie.Full Review

Keith Phipps
The Onion (A.V. Club)

With Boogie Nights, we know we're not just watching episodes from disparate lives but a panorama of recent social history, rendered in bold, exuberant colors.Full Review

Mick LaSalle
San Francisco Chronicle

Mark Wahlberg, in a star-making performance, has the kind of electric ingenuousness that John Travolta did in "Saturday Night Fever."Full Review
