Both [Garr and Lange] are excellent, and Miss Lange continues her promise to become a superstar of the 1980s.

It's a movie with a lot on its mind - while never toppling over under the weight of its good intentions.

What makes Tootsie a smart, enduring comedy instead of a silly, momentary one is its real sympathy for women.

It is not just the best comedy of the year; it is popular art on the way to becoming cultural artifact.

A sparkling turn by Hoffman and an absolutely fabulous cast make this a risk -- and a risque -- success.

Audience Reviews for Tootsie

Apr 16, 2019Undeniably has some great scenes (i.e. just about anything with Teri Garr or Bill Murray) but on the whole its a little too long and the romance isn't all that convincing.Alec B Super Reviewer

Dec 31, 2014I can watch this film again and again. Hoffman has fun puncturing the real-life perception of himself and although he never fully convinces as a woman he comes bloody close. Throw in a young Murray and Lange and you have an 80's classic that everyone (but especially actors) will love.David S Super Reviewer

May 12, 2014Although revered in its time, Tootsie has not aged well. It seems a trite bit silly in the here and now.John B Super Reviewer

Oct 23, 2013Tootsie is simply the worst type of American humor: one that has a clever idea in its hands but takes it in a completely wrong direction, letting it die in a predictable plot that looks like a cheap soap opera and bears a stupid sitcom sense of humor.Carlos M Super Reviewer
