For the first time in months, this critical spectator feels like tossing his old hat into the air and weaving a joyous snake dance over the typewriter keys in celebration of Metro's triumphant Woman of the Year...
The premise is promising...But Stevens lacks the courage to make much of the conflict; the film ends with an embarrassing sequence in which Hepburn is tamed and installed in the kitchen.
Filled with witty lines and hilarious situations, the film is good entertainment, reminding us of Hepburn and Tracy's appeal
Fine Tracy-Hepburn comedy-romance directed by George Stevens.
A marvelous comedy-drama, brimming with wit, style, and sophistication.
The first teaming of Tracy and Hepburn shows the chemistry between the stars, setting the pattern for future and better battle of the sexes romantic comedies.
Tracy and Hepburn were a great team, and this, their first outing together, set the seal on the pattern to follow into the next decade.
One of the best Tracy-Hepburn movies
It starts strong, but bogs in a muddled slapstick finale.
This is the first of many Tracy & Hepburn movies, and the chemistry's not quite there yet in this one. Some impressively funny scenes and a hilarious ending redeem the long stretches of predictability.
The Oscar-winning screenplay provides plenty of smart lines along the way as art anticipates life.
Brilliant except for the odd part about the adopted child and awkward ending.
