Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

If I had put two and two together that this is the same director, Bill Bennett, that had done "The Nugget", which I thought was an abominable supposed comedy, I probably never would have watched "Tempted". Unfortunately I would have missed a very intriguing neo-noir, so I'm not ashamed to give credit where credits due. Burt Reynolds hires a carpenter, Peter Facinelli, who works for him, to severely test his beautiful wife's fidelity. The script has many twists and turns, a few of which seem to slightly stretch credibility, but overall this is a fine, entertaining film. The erotic moments work, and the story fills the 91 minute running time nicely. Recommended. - MERK

I found the film nailed me from the beginning, this film has nearly everything a decent film has to have , good-great acting, an original concept, a good trace of the pilot, many turns and twists...See this film without high expectations, its not a classic , but a film that will keep you on your seat while watching it, thats for sure.

You will not be disappointed with TEMPTED. It is a thoroughly entertaining exploration into the seedy world of dark characters whose only purpose in life seems to be to cross the line and just keep going.Burt Reynolds is great as the man suspicious of his wife. Saffron Burrows is perfect as his wife being 'tempted'. And Peter Facinelli is a breakthrough as the young builder enlisted to test his wife's fidelity. The film is suspenseful at every plot turn and twist as the 'test' gets out of hand and our characters are driven closer and closer to the edge. What really makes this film memorable is the way the filmmakers convey the feel of New Orleans. I've never been to the States but when I left the cinema after watching this film I honestly thought I had.***** out of *****

I have to say i quite enjoyed this movie, i am the worlds biggest "Burt Reynolds" fan, although I was a bit confused with his part in the film, I dident know if he was the good guy or the bad guy, I still scratching my head over that one. I also thought "Saffron Burrows" did a great job in her part, although I was very surprized to see her do nudity in the film, you don't see that too often.8/10
