The Nature of Love

"A sexy, funny treat (...) 'Simple comme Sylvain' refreshingly centers the female adulterer's experience, in a richly comic mode" 

"There’s a constant quirk felt in the film’s staging that tugs at smiles and lights your heart aflame alongside Sophie’s (...) Whilst exploring her moral fabric via awkward dinner parties and leash-wearing sexual escapades, the film delivers as much hilarity as it does sexy steam and existential inquiry (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 4)" 

"A funny, nonjudgmental look at sexual exploration (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)" 

"A delightful modern love triangle about our paradoxical desires for passion and comfort" 

"This romantic comedy is as sharp and perceptive as it is funny" 

"Monia Chokri’s intelligent culture-clash comedy fizzes with sexuality and cynicism (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)" 

"It is a mark of Chokri’s desire to explore her characters’ moral murkiness that she shows the relationship stuttering past these red flags into areas comic and transgressive (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)" 

"A film that’s somehow sensitively enough directed by Chokri to make this extramarital relationship fizz and crackle beyond the usual smutty clichés (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"
