Entertainment Weekly - Owen Gleiberman
The Girlfriend Experience is one of Steven Soderbergh's bite-size, semi-improvised, shot-on-DV doodles (like Bubble or Full Frontal), and it's the best one he's made.

Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert
This film is true about human nature. It is not universal, but within its particular focus, it is unrelenting.

Boston Globe - Ty Burr
Fair warning: I had to see The Girlfriend Experience twice before its pieces settled into coherent shape.

The A.V. Club - Scott Tobias
The thinking behind Grey's casting, with its obvious sex-industry connections, lends the film a degree of verisimilitude, but it really pays off in a cameo by film critic Glenn Kenny, who brings a hilariously sleazy theatricality to the role of an "escort critic" who expects graft for his reviews.

ReelViews - James Berardinelli
Voyeurism is a favorite pursuit of Americans, and The Girlfriend Experience works in large part because it indulges that pastime. The fascination with the film is that it offers an arm's-length opportunity to peer through a peephole into a lifestyle that will be exotic and alluring to most in the audience.
