Rolling Stone
The Dreamers may go slack when you most want it to soar, but it also seduces with eroticism and resonates with ideas.

The A.V. Club
The Dreamers is a universal story, one that captures the thrill of discovering culture, sex, and politics, and the painful twinge of learning that those worlds aren't enough.

New York Magazine (Vulture)
He doesn’t entirely succeed, but the attempt has poignancy: As uneven as much of his recent work has been, Bertolucci's still in love with the movies, and his ardor--if not always the ends he puts it to--is exhilarating.

Film Threat
It wasn't as good as the films it cites, but at least it didn't bore me.

The Hollywood Reporter
The film's real failure is that neither the story nor the characters capture the zeitgeist that Bertolucci theoretically set out to celebrate.
