If Mike Nichols had just stayed in his lane, we wouldn’t have gotten something that was so lightweight and ineffective.

New York Magazine/Vulture

David Denby

Just as most of us would agree that it's better to be the boss than a secretary, it's also better to be slick than dull. Shallow at it is, Working Girl is the most entertaining American comedy of 1988.

El Nuevo Herald (Miami)

Rene Jordan

Elegant, sophisticated, frigid, and hot. A nostalgic reminder, between champaign and vision, of the fine delusions of Carey Grant, Irene Dunne, and Myrna Loy in the thirties. [Full review in Spanish]

A buoyant, emotionally gratifying underdog story, one that manages to be touching despite any of its minor follies

It never tries to be too dark, even though audiences will suspect an appropriately mature resolution for the setup.
