Paul Aug 18, 2026 Too much dialogue for me. See more Tom B May 21, 2026 Incredibly clever screenplay for what was originally a play. Bravo. I think these days, we would characterize this as a satire -- and would love it. The press really takes it on the nose here, along with public officials. See more Robert P @Superbad 5 days ago His Girl Friday is a *5* star Movie! See more bruce F @bruce999 Aug 4, 2026 a real classic. Fast talking newspaper people... nice drama. some fun moments. a must see. See more Matthew J L @matthewjloller Apr 23, 2026 A film that uses its lightning-fast script to comically and seeringly point out the slimy degeneracy that Hildy seeks to escape. And yet at its pinnacle, the film also has her return to her inhumane, anti-feminine profession in rejection of a more homely, more feminine, and more human life. It would be one thing if we were supposed to take this as a tragedy, and I have spent several days trying to convince myself that this is so, so that I can enjoy and approve of the film. Yet in its final moments, the film only laughs at Hildy's tragic choice as though the movie was not succesfully making serious critique in the midst of all the comedy. The ending does no justice to how seriously this comedy took itself. Whether that's an over-commitment the source material, an over-commitment to comedic trappings, or an over-commitment to boss babe feminism... I dont really care - the point remains the same, and that is that the ending of this film sabotages what would have been a real masterwork. See more Kim P @RT98672688 Mar 22, 2026 A definite choice for the Mount Rushmore of screwball comedies, Grant and Russell are perfect! And seeing a young Ralph Bellamy is a hoot after last seeing him as Randolph Duke in Trading Places and a small part in Pretty Woman. See more Read all reviews
