What Are the Critics Saying About The Lying Life of Adults?

The Lying Life of Adults has an official critics rating of 100% and an average audience score of 67% on Rotten Tomatoes.

Rebecca Nicholson from The Guardian writes, “When I read The Lying Life of Adults, I thought of it as a very internal and inward-looking story, but this version breathes new life into it, turns it outwards, and adds a touch of rocket fuel.”

Variety’s Mike McCahill says, “Even minor Ferrante proves to hold a sense of what it was to live through its period — it’s just accompanied here by the altogether more familiar feeling of seeing a Netflix show with a few too many episodes for its own creative good.”
