It's delightfully playful for a serious movie, balancing glib wit against its pathos and controversy.
Roger Moore, Orlando Sentinel

The great thing about Kinsey is the triumphant way it entertains, informs and electrifies us with the highest values of traditional cinema while opening our hearts and minds with the liberating potential of human diversity.
Rex Reed, New York Observer
Rotten
The biopic succumbs to a paint-by-numbers feel as it dutifully touches the highs and lows of a life that can't easily fit within two hours.
Eric Harrison, Houston Chronicle

Smart, eloquent and refreshingly free of condescension, Kinsey makes clear we'd all be a lot worse off without him.
Rene Rodriguez, Miami Herald
Fresh
One heck of a flick, paying homage to an imperfect man whose impact on history may be substantial, and yet painting him as a clumsy, passionate fellow who's simply trying to figure things out.
Tom Long, Detroit News
