Five best friends, all married, decide to share a loft apartment. In this loft they meet their mistresses and conquests. Everything seems perfect, until one morning the body of an unknown young woman is found in the loft. The group of friends begin to suspect each other and it soon becomes clear that they know far less about each other than they had initially thought. (texte officiel du distributeur)

Critiques (1)
The term "erotic thriller" suits Loft better than the designation "crime story." It is not so much about solving a murder as it is about navigating a minefield of perversions, passions, intrigues, and manipulations among a successful group of friends, their wives, and mistresses. Middle-aged gentlemen are somewhat bored and have their quirks. However, they forget that every game has a price, and whoever loses will probably have to pay. It is solidly cast and sexually open, without sliding into cheap vulgarity or even pornographic one-dimensionality. The film also has good camera work. The screenplay is not flawless, as unnecessary literalness harms it, especially the addition a year later, which spoils the impression. However, in the end, I lean towards a weak four-star rating. Considering the knowledge of the twist, I can now pass on the Belgian original and the American remake. It would be the same in pale blue. Overall impression: 70%.
