Description
A three-part anthology about love and sexuality: a menage-a-trois between a couple and a young woman on the coast of Tuscany; an advertising executive under enormous pressure at work, who, during visits to his psychiatrist, is pulled to delve into the possible reasons why his stress seems to manifest itself in a recurring erotic dream; a story of unrequited love about a beautiful, 1960s high-end call girl in an impossible affair with her young tailor.

Key opinion
Eros is an anthology film featuring three distinct segments from acclaimed directors that ultimately fails to coalesce into a unified or satisfying exploration of its titular theme. While the individual visual styles are noted, the consensus is that the segments lack meaningful narrative depth and fail to live up to the high profiles of their creators.
| Originality | The segments fail to form a coherent whole, lacking a connective thread or shared thematic vision to justify their anthology format. | |
| Direction | Wong Kar-wai's 'The Hand' is widely recognized as the most successful and aesthetically accomplished segment, praised for its atmosphere and emotional resonance. | |
| Screenplay | Antonioni's segment is criticized for its superficiality and lack of substance, with many viewing it as a decline in the director's creative power. | |
| Direction | Soderbergh's 'Equilibrium' divides viewers; some find it a clever, stylized experiment, while others dismiss it as an inconsequential or dull anecdote. |
