Synopsis
Set in 1977, back when sex was safe, pleasure was a business and business was booming, idealistic porn producer Jack Horner aspires to elevate his craft to an art form. Horner discovers Eddie Adams, a hot young talent working as a busboy in a nightclub, and welcomes him into the extended family of movie-makers, misfits and hangers-on that are always around. Adams' rise from nobody to a celebrity adult entertainer is meteoric, and soon the whole world seems to know his porn alter ego, "Dirk Diggler". Now, when disco and drugs are in vogue, fashion is in flux and the party never seems to stop, Adams' dreams of turning sex into stardom are about to collide with cold, hard reality.

Considering the potentially explosive nature of the yarn, set in the porn world, Anderson's strategy is remarkably nonjudgmental and nonsensationalistic, largely due to his love and respect for all the characters and his impressive storytelling skills. Full review A staggering blend of GoodFellas style, Pulp Fiction wit and good, rocking sex. Full review In terms of sweep, ambition and precocious cinematic competence, it heralds the arrival of a new talent.Variety

The New York Times
Everything about Boogie Nights is interestingly unexpected, even the few seconds of darkness before the film's neon title blasts onto the screen. The director, Paul Thomas Anderson, [displays talent that] is as big and exuberant as skywriting.

Roger Ebert
As a writer and director, Paul Thomas Anderson is a skilled reporter who fills his screen with understated, authentic details.

Los Angeles Times
The film is bemused and entertained, as we are, by this pack of sexual extremists, and the eye it casts on them is both benevolent and wry.

Empire Magazine
Boogie Nights is loaded with lascivious colour, poisoned with lacerating traumas and pumped full of wit. Better than sex. Very nearly.
