In terms of quality, Dr. T and the Women is one of Altman's good-but-not-great films. In typical Altman style, it features some great ensemble acting, including a wonderful performance by Richard Gere.

Movie Info
Director Robert Altman reteams with Cookie's Fortune scribe Anne Rapp for this tale of a Dallas gynecologist and the parade of anxious patients, haggard family members, and potential love interests who come his way. Richard Gere plays the titular role of Dr. Sullivan Travis, a calm, successful, and much sought-after ob-gyn who witnesses his normally stable life come apart over the course of one rainy autumn. As the film opens, Dr. T and his wife Kate (Farrah Fawcett) are preparing for the

Dr. T is vintage Altman, the best movie he's made since Short Cuts.
Top Critic[Altman] and Gere, surrounded by various blondes in extremis, mostly keep it entertainingly rambunctious.
Has hardly any plot at all, or believable characters.
Shows that, after all these years, Robert Altman hasn't changed -- thank God.
What holds the stories and the characters together is the decency of Dr. T, and Gere seems wholly comfortable with the role.
Altman and his congenially matched screenwriter Anne Rapp wrap some stinging psychological and emotional observations in a beguiling package.
Richly enjoyable Robert Altman. Not for kids.
... Altman spins delicate scenes and beautiful moments throughout the flighty fun.
Much like the inexplicable tornado at the end that causes this film to truly derail...this blows.
Moves at hurricane speed for most of its 122-minute running time, but Gere deliberately underplays his character, providing the calm center that the story needs.
The ending is so supremely awful that whatever progress had been made up to that point was washed away by the film's obtrusively climactic storm.
