With its soap-operatic performances, bonkbuster plotline and sparkling seafront setting, all 'Adore' really lacks is a cameo from Alf Stewart
Tom Huddleston, Time Out

Would Fontaine have made this film if the mothers looked like and were as old as Barbra Streisand and Kathy Bates and the sons weren't built like surfers? Of course not.

This isn't an Oedipus complex. This is a Preposterous complex.
Rene Rodriguez, Miami Herald

Tom Russo, Boston Globe

Adore is, as my late mother would say in describing Sidney Sheldon novels, good trash.
