Martin is only occasionally grating with his Jerry Lewis-type mannerisms.

Martin does some of his best acting in this film and steals the movie from Tomlin, whose character is, at best, a one-note creation.

Steve Martin delivers a marvelous, physically challenging performance in this often hilarious comedy.

Martin has become a superb physical comic, and Tomlin brings some unexpected warmth to a cruelly written part. A manic fuzziness takes over in the last reel and spoils some of the pleasure, but it's still a sympathetic effort.

Beatiful comedy. Martin acts half-man/half-woman perfectly. Biting cross-gender comedy here.

Martin is his usual combination of flat cynicism and crazed childishness, indulging in some inspired Jerry Lewis-like clowning with his arms and legs hopelessly out of synch.

Mr. Martin's astonishing performance is the film's most conspicuous asset, but the entire cast is good.

...one could not hope for more humor than from this unassuming title.

All in all, an unusually amiable and well-made comedy...

A decent diversion, but a largely forgettable film. Martin and Tomlin try hard, but don't get as many laughs as they should.
