With its humorous script and its stars' immense charm, Sabrina remains a resonant romantic gem.

This is never less than glittering entertainment, but somehow a certain measure of lead has found its way into the formula. Feb 3, 2009 | Full Review…
This is never less than glittering entertainment, but somehow a certain measure of lead has found its way into the formula.
Script is long on glibly quipping dialog, dropped with a seemingly casual air, and broadly played situations. The splendid trouping delivers them style. Leavening the chuckles are tugs at the heart. Oct 18, 2008 | Full Review…

It's a Cinderella story that gets turned on its head, a satire about breaking down class and emotional barriers, and a confrontation between New World callousness and Old World humanity. Jun 24, 2006 | Full Review…

It is a story as light as a feather and as old as yesterday's news, as transparent as a society column item and as smug as a foreign-made car. But Mr. Wilder...has made it into a commentary as crisp as a screed in a smart magazine. Jan 1, 2000 | Full Review…

What you end up with is hardly vintage Wilder, but certainly one of those warm, comfortable movies it's nice to curl up with on a Sunday afternoon. Feb 10, 2014 | Full Review…

Ignore the critics who say this is one of Billy Wilder's minor works. It is a major movie, a masterpiece of romantic comedy, and it still looks as fresh as a daisy. Feb 10, 2014 | Rating: 5/5 | Full Review…

It's a perfect soufflé of a movie -- or to borrow an apt phrase from Ian Anderson, it's a 'breath of champagne on a sparkling night.' Nov 13, 2013 | Rating: 5/5 | Full Review…

Hepburn plays Cinderella, and rarely has a better casting choice been made, if ever. Her lightness is a joy to behold. But Bogie, as her Prince waiting in the wings is simply too old for the role - he looks like her grandfather - and the whole effort drags at the side of the road due to this oversized elephant in the room.
Super Reviewer
An amusing romantic comedy with great dialogue and a sweet Cinderella feel to it, but still the plot is not so original and there is a glaring lack of chemistry between Hepburn and Bogart, who is also clearly miscast and seems too old for the role.
A sparkling gem. Hepburn, Bogart and Holden are all great in this reworking of Cinderella.
Number 4 off the pile of crap... What do you know - not crap! Despite never really having got the whole fuss over Audrey Hepburn, I could really see it here. She is completely charming as Sabrina and attractive too. This from someone who can't sit through Breakfast at Tiffany's. This is a lovely, light romantic movie about a chauffeur's daughter who is in love with the rich boy next door. He doesn't know she exists until she returns from school in France, all grown up and newly sophisticated. As she gets to know him and his brother it seems she has two admirers. I found this easy to watch and undemanding. Far from ditching it, I think I will watch it again sometime!
