"Arguably the raunchiest, funniest and most enjoyably nonjudgmental American movie about selling sex since 'Boogie Nights'..."
David Rooney - THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER
"Channing Tatum's gift comes in playing things casual, inhabiting the character without having to spell out an elaborate backstory.... Soderbergh is in excellent form here."
Peter Debruge - VARIETY
"Soderbergh has created a spicy yet lucid, surgingly high-energy yet smartly modernistic musical."
Richard Brody - NEW YORKER
