- 25TV Guide MagazineMaitland McDonaghTV Guide MagazineMaitland McDonaghThe lighting and makeup are exceptionally harsh; all the women look shockingly rough beneath their garish makeup.
- 20VarietyTodd McCarthyVarietyTodd McCarthyFew pretty actresses have so thoroughly discarded their vanity in an outright vanity piece as Jenny McCarthy does in Dirty Love, so it's unfortunate for her this exercise in comic self-abnegation, which she wrote for herself, falls so awfully flat.
- 10Film ThreatFilm ThreatHollywood is definitely at its worst here and not the type of Hollywood which would dare to greenlight this; just Hollywood being portrayed on film.

- 0Village VoiceMark HolcombVillage VoiceMark HolcombA kind of "Sex and the City" for L.A. bottom-feeders awash in clichéd, self-loathing misogyny that would make Howard Stern flinch.
- 0Chicago Sun-TimesRoger EbertChicago Sun-TimesRoger EbertDirty Love wasn't written and directed, it was committed. Here is a film so pitiful, it doesn't rise to the level of badness. It is hopelessly incompetent.
