At Metacritic, which assigns a weighted average rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the film has received an average score of 27%, indicating "generally unfavorable reviews". 
Many viewers pointed to the fact that the main character was "punished" with HIV for cheating on her husband, further miseducating and stigmatizing the disease.
Marjorie Baumgarten from the Austin Chronicle said, "Apart from its dramatic predictability, Temptation is a snooze because of its languid pacing and rudimentary camerawork."
Roger Ebert called it "flat-out ludicrous from beginning to end."
Entertainment Weekly wrote: "A few wild, third-act twists give Perry's middling melodrama some soap-opera kick. But all the finger-wagging sure does get tiring after a while."
The Hollywood Reporter wrote: "Onscreen, it somehow manages to be at once wildly overblown and terminally boring."
