Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
A feminist comedy with real bite; it always brings down the house.
– Michael Wilmington,
Chicago Tribune,

fresh:
In Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown, Mr. Almodovar sets out to charm rather than shock. That he succeeds should not come as a surprise.
– Vincent Canby,

fresh:
This is painless sexual politics, a fiendish comedy full of prickles and pain and the bright shiny pinks of a matador's cape.
– Rita Kempley,

fresh:
Women slinks devilishly (and expertly) between farce, absurdism and tragedy.
