Atom User Reviews
Metacritic
Lee's journey of the body and soul is something else. Maggie Gyllenhaal makes it strangely touching, a revelation.
Joe Morgenstern
Wall Street Journal
Not meant to be realistic; it was shot by the director Steven Shainberg in a slow, dreamy neo-De Palma style and in candy colors, and Gyllenhaal has a Kewpie-doll silliness that almost makes the naughty parts of the movie fun. [23 Sept 2002, p. 98]
David Denby
The New Yorker
Secretary is deeply conventional: Edward and Lee accept their bondage as the way to a more fulfilling life. It's the filmmakers who need to be spanked.
