"It’s a pleasure to watch Foster loosen up and have fun with a role, getting to exercise comedy chops too seldom tapped in her American projects of recent decades."
— David Rooney, The Hollywood Reporter
"Anchoring it all is Foster, using the full force of her star power and impeccable French to make A Private Life, unwieldy and complex as it is, go down as easy as a glass of gamay."
— Lindsey Bahr, Associated Press
"Once one gets past the initial shock, awe and envy of seeing Foster in her first French-speaking leading role, it’s easy to be swept away by the veteran actor’s exquisite, fluent mastery of the language."
— Coleman Spilde, Salon.com
"A Private Life is a murder mystery only on its surface; at its heart, it’s an exploration of a lonely woman’s extremely active mind, and an unexpectedly moving story of becoming more present in one’s real life, rather than one’s imaginary one."
— Moira MacDonald, Seattle Times
"Jodie Foster works magic like that onscreen and presents us with one of the most fully developed, certainly fascinating characters you will likely encounter this year in director/ co-screenwriter Rebecca Zlotowski’s French noirish black comedy."
— Randy Myers, San Jose Mercury News
