Overview

A three-part anthology film about love and sexuality: a menage-a-trois between a couple and a young woman on the coast of Tuscany; an advertising executive under enormous pressure at work, who, during visits to his psychiatrist, is pulled to delve into the possible reasons why his stress seems to manifest itself in a recurring erotic dream; and a story of unrequited love about a beautiful, 1960s high-end call girl in an impossible affair with her young tailor.

I guess one out of three ain't bad.

Jonathan Rosenbaum, Chicago Reader

Three smart filmmakers produce three whiffs on the theme of love.

Joshua Rothkopf, Time Out
Rotten

The auteurist feast turns out to be a paltry spread, with one director on autopilot, another playing it safe, and the last apparently working on assignment for the European Red Shoe Diaries.

Scott Tobias, AV Club
Rotten

It is fairly melancholy news that the works of two of Antonioni's admirers outshine the master's segment.

Lisa Kennedy, Denver Post

Eros comes nowhere near meeting the challenge of its title when compared to the increasingly lewd standards of our current cinema.

Andrew Sarris, New York Observer
