Moviegoers are saying
This Robin Williams and Nathan Lane comedy has audiences split between loving its quotable dialogue and LGBTQ+ representation while being frustrated by the straight son character who reviewers universally despise. Despite mixed ratings, viewers consistently praise the film's enduring relevance and Williams' comedic genius, particularly in scenes involving conservative politicians.

the son is the biggest cinematic villain known to man
Madison 🎭May 10, 2019when they told agador to put on some straight looking clothes and he showed up in a white crop top with “STRAIGHT LOOKING” written across the front...a true lgbtq icon
eelyAug 17, 2014The heart-warming tale of a lovely gay couple who must overcome having an asshole straight son. This could have been cringe-inducing but it's a winner.

robin williams' full-bodied horror when he walks back into the room and gene hackman is talking about killing abortion doctors is just some of the all-time funniest acting ever

- Joey Schmidt likedThe Birdcage
Honestly, I think this movie is one of Robin William's most underrated films. The comedy and the story were both fun, the acting was great and I had a good time watching it all the way through. Would definitely watch again if I had the chance.
Izaak Whisler lovedThe Birdcagehonestly everyone here serves and it’s really great. i love nathan lane so much he is literally so talented and the true backbone of this piece. just a shame no one kicked val in the face for being an unsupportive POS.

Metacritic
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
Everyone will be tickled pink by this sleek Mike Nichols remake.

The film is so boisterously entertaining that it's easy for the unsuspecting viewer not to realize that there's a message here.
