There's nothing sleazier than sleaze that fails to titillate, and this drab blight on a hot cast is as sleazy as a preordained hit ever gets. [07 Apr 1993 Pg. 08.D]
Redford's Gage is so busy being exquisitely sensitive and polite he neglects to project any energy, and without it the crucial morning-after part of the movie gradually collapses under the weight of its own self-importance. [07 Apr 1993 Pg. F1]
This is one of those high-concept pictures with a big windup and weak delivery.

Indecent Proposal starts out kinky and turns into a languid-and shockingly banal- domestic soap opera.
Once the setup is over, however, Indecent Proposal starts to fall apart, with the implausibilities and contrivances getting worse with every passing minute.
Mr. Lyne's films may not cast any new light on the human condition, but they do keep you glued to the screen.
The movie is ingenious in the way it surrounds its essentially crass subject matter with a camouflage of romantic scenery.
