Reviews

Entertainment Weekly - Owen Gleiberman
The beauty of Swingers lies in the irony of its title: Despite their lounge-lizard posing, these guys will never really live up to their Rat Pack dreams.
80
Variety - Todd McCarthy
Engaging, refreshingly human in its humor and becomingly modest in its aspirations, this hip look at being out of it announces some promising new talent and will play well with young audiences looking for comfortable entertainment that doesn't feel manufactured.
80
The A.V. Club - Unnamed
Swingers has something genuinely rare: a fine script and realistic characters.
80
Los Angeles Times - Kenneth Turan
Confident of its emotional effects, Swingers knows how to breathe life into its people, and hooking audiences is its reward.

Austin Chronicle - Unnamed
Actor-screenwriter Favreau and director Liman demonstrate with Swingers that they're definitely "money."
