Woodruff's direction is smooth enough on a technical level, but the film's storytelling has little dimension, even for a melodrama.

The actors are uniformly handsome and mostly serviceable, though the same can't be said about the filmmaking or the writing.

Watching "Addicted" is like eating Cheese Whiz straight from the jar. There's no nutritional value. It's kind of embarrassing. But it does satisfy a base craving for cheap, immediate sensation.

Addicted doesn't know how to competently address its issues of shame and guilt without simply reifying that sexual fulfillment is something that ravages unless tightly contained.

Addicted is the kind of film for which the Alan Smithee pseudonym was invented.

Part soapy melodrama, part steamy thriller of infidelity gone sideways, this film is wholly unconvincing as a study of sexual compulsion.

A film that is highly competent in addressing the subject of sexual addiction, as it reveals the life of a woman—who has a family and a seemingly perfect marriage—as she gives in to the temptation of an affair with a mysterious, enigmatic artist. It is an uncomfortable, dramatic work, offering relevant insights into a theme that is far more complex than it might initially appear.

I hate to say it like this but if I wanted to watch this sort of influenced pornography I'd change the channel to national geographic.

A simple bad movie with a specific audience that doesn't want to see anything interesting.

The main character is credible and a good actress. Here and there some flaws, but the story works. The end is a little bit obvious, but all in all amusing.
