Atom User Reviews
Metacritic
The film is so boisterously entertaining that it's easy for the unsuspecting viewer not to realize that there's a message here.
James Berardinelli
ReelViews
What makes Mike Nichols' version more than just a retread is good casting in the key roles, and a wicked screenplay by Elaine May.
Roger Ebert
Chicago Sun-Times
Hilarious, frenetic, and touching, but stereotyped and superficial in its treatment of both homosexuals and conservatives.
