Dark Habits Ratings & Reviews
Vague Visages
Justine Smith
The film operates like a high key sitcom, where camaraderie overrules plot contrivances. However, unlike the pithy misunderstandings of American primetime television, character development overrules the drama of sex, drugs and money.
Vague Visages
Mark Seneviratne
There is never the sense that Almodóvar is mocking the human being...
Gay Community News (Boston)
Michael Bronski
A treasure box of wit, sentiment and sly emotional insight.
El Nuevo Herald (Miami)
Rene Jordan
A promising film, yet not totally achieved…I can say that I enjoyed this immensely. [Full review in Spanish]
New York Times
Walter Goodman
Mr. Almodovar, who wrote as well as directed, does not quite bring the events together, but his wry attitude toward conventional morality is not lost, and the acting is sufficiently controlled to keep the characters from running away into farce.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
It's all kitsch and no substance.
MovieMartyr.com
Jeremy Heilman
Dark Habits is a film in love with films and pop culture in general.
CinePassion
Fernando F. Croce
Possibly the first work to hint at the tender sadness of [Almodvar's]later phase
PopMatters
Matthew Sorrento
Almodvar on crazy nuns should be as madcap as Peter Jackson was on zombies ( ... ) But the result is a rather low-key affair.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
Ken Hanke
It's hard to imagine how it could be any more Almodovar-esque than it is.
Lessons of Darkness
Nick Schager
Plenty of premise but little payoff.
Old School Reviews
John A. Nesbit
far drearier and lifeless than Almodvar's best films
