Directed by Cukor with his trademark elegance, and proof of the filmmaker's famed ability to direct female actresses, this sparkling satire on backbiting, privileged women continues to delight.January 17, 2007
It's the irrevocable women's pic of the 1930s.January 26, 2006
A more eccentric film than the following year's The Philadelphia Story, with which it shares a couple of faces, it's almost as fabulous.September 12, 2008
Isn't quite as nasty as it probably could have been, coming several years after the establishment of the Hays Code, but it's still plenty witty.June 23, 2006
Cukor's all-star version of Booth's stinging play is all about wisecracking cattiness of wives and mistresses (of the upper class), confirming men's suspicions of what women talk about when they are not around.September 11, 2008
The catty banter and Wildean aphorisms (some of them contributed by Anita Loos) are delivered with impeccable timing by a cast only MGM could have mustered.July 20, 2007
a bitchy but endearing mix of comedy and melodrama. Norma Shearer holds the chaos together with improbable dignity.May 31, 2014
A pretty superb and remarkable film...September 11, 2008
[Cukor is] at his best with a cast that includes Rosalind Russell, Norma Shearer, Joan Crawford, Hedda Hopper, Ruth Hussey, Paulette Goddard, and Joan Fontaine.September 11, 2008
A film that deserves to be seen (or seen again).May 30, 2008
Picture however holds passages that slow movement down to a walk.
