As a time capsule piece, it's fascinating, yet as a stand-alone film, it's only intermittently interesting.

Reviews for I Am Curious (Yellow)
A distant, cold and tricky movie, the kind about which you can never say: this is precisely right or wrong.

Top CriticThe movie is simply, basically, boring. It is stupid and slow and uninteresting.
10/23/04
Top CriticRarely very stimulating to watch, but significant in the evolution of audiences', critics' and censors' attitudes to film.
05/24/03
I suspect that I am Curious (Yellow) will remain largely, well, a curiosity.

Today we can get our sex with less punishment, which is progress of a sort.
01/22/08
Top CriticIt’s too shapeless and loose, and it’s easy for one’s attention to drift until the screen is once again filled with the infamous sexual interludes.
02/27/01
At once humorously annoying, politically dynamic, and clever the film is a reasonably enjoyable two hours.

the Criterion Collection breathes life into its creaky celluloid with the definitive preservation and a cornucopia of historical background material
03/17/03
It is an intellectually stimulating work with a smart, comical atmosphere, and it sustains its appeal through the perky modern attitude exhibited by Nyman, even when she has her clothing on.

Top CriticI Am Curious--Yellow is entertaining for its novelty, and exhaustive in its political intent. Its notorious reputation (attributed only to its frank sexuality), however, is misleading.
03/18/03
The mix of frivolousness and moral reproach, though, seems altogether '60s, rather than particularly Swedish.
08/16/07
What was once considered audacious and experimental now seems rather quaint and artistically pretentious.
01/22/08
I actually stood in line in 1967 to see this? Mediocre and forgettable today, and then.
11/03/07
Once notorious, now merely boring
10/02/02
Is it art, or just Euro-porn? By the end of this mess, you really won't care.
