"Talk That" received generally positive reviews from critics, most of whom had praised the song for its mature musical style and concept as opposed to their previous singles.[3][4][5] As Jacques Peterson of Pop Dust wrote, "When it comes to Korean girl group, SECRET, they usually serve up one of two concepts: ultra sexy, or ultra cute. Usually the former. But for their new single, “Talk That,” the girls have had a change of heart, not only trading in their signature brassy retro sound for gloomy synthpop, but also adopting a much more serious image than they’ve ever had before."[3] Karen Shin of MTV Iggy shared the same sentiments and commented, "Who knew Secret could be anything other than bright and confident? Their new music video definitely “talks” for itself, showing the girls being vulnerable and heartbroken, and all."[4] Shin further commented, "Secret made a complete 180[degree change] for their new image to promote “Talk That,” a ‘French-electric’ style song about a heartsick girl who’s just had her feelings toyed with.....We like this new side of Secret".[4] Seoulbeats was rather lukewarm with its review and wrote that the song is "acceptable as an up-beat ballad with an emotionally driven MV."[6] Seoul Beats added that compare to "Poison", the refinement for "Talk That" has turned out to be a good choice."[6] Since the release of "Talk That" and its music video, the song is being met with favorable reviews for its fresh-sounding music and genre.[5] Aside from the change of musical style that has met favorable reviews, Choi Hyun-Jung of Star N News complimented the members' vocals calling it, "impressive and expressive".[7]
